WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Lodali Barbera d'Alba begins with hand-harvested grapes from the producer's vineyards. The grapes undergo soft pressing, followed by maceration at controlled temperatures for approximately 15-20 days. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel or concrete tanks. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 3 months in concrete tanks and then spends an additional 3 months aging in the bottle before release.
