WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Luigi Voghera Langhe Nebbiolo 2022 is produced using traditional red wine fermentation methods. This involves a 10-day maceration period followed by a 15-day fermentation at controlled low temperatures (24-28°C) in stainless steel tanks, with soft pressing of the grapes. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 10 months in large Slavonian oak casks. The harvest typically takes place in early October. The producer's philosophy emphasizes traditional techniques and sustainable farming practices.
