WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process is designed to preserve the delicate primary fruit aromas and crisp acidity of the Pinot Grigio grape. Grapes are harvested at optimal freshness and immediately pressed gently. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to retain volatile aromatics. The wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation and is aged briefly in stainless steel before early bottling, ensuring a bright, clean, and refreshing profile.
