WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC is produced using 100% Nebbiolo grapes. The winemaking process begins with a manual harvest to ensure grape selection. Fermentation is spontaneous, utilizing indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled steel tanks. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for at least 12 months in large wooden casks, followed by bottle refinement. The winery adheres to certified organic farming methods, using only natural products in its vineyards. They also implement sustainable practices such as using solar energy and recovered rainwater.
