WINE MAKING PROCESS
Masi Levarìce Soave Classico is produced using traditional vinification methods from fresh grapes. The process involves soft pressing and fermentation at controlled, low temperatures (14-18°C) within glass-lined concrete tanks. Following fermentation, the wine typically rests on its fine lees in these tanks for a period that varies with the vintage. The final stage includes bottling and a minimum of one month of aging in the bottle before release. Masi Agricola's approach emphasizes respecting established winemaking traditions while incorporating research and innovation through their Masi Technical Group.
