WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Naturalmente Bio Grillo undergoes cryomaceration of destemmed grapes in stainless steel tanks for 4-12 hours at 4°C. This is followed by soft pressing and static clearing of the must. Fermentation takes place at 16°C in oak and acacia tonneaux. The wine is then aged 'sur lies' in stainless steel tanks with daily batonnage, and finishes with two months of bottle aging. The winemaking process emphasizes a minimalist approach to preserve the grapes' natural balance and connection to the landscape.
