WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Vietti Perbacco Nebbiolo undergoes alcoholic fermentation for 3-4 weeks at controlled temperatures of 28°-32°C. Following this, malolactic fermentation occurs in steel tanks and/or barriques. Each vineyard parcel is vinified and aged separately. The wine then matures for about 18-20 months in a combination of barriques and large Slavonian oak barrels. Finally, the different lots are assembled in stainless steel tanks before bottling.
