WINE MAKING PROCESS
Roero Roccapalea Tibaldi 2019 is produced from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. The winemaking process involves fermentation with the inclusion of some whole bunches, a technique chosen to enhance freshness and fruit expression. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 18 months in large oak casks, a method that allows for gradual maturation without imparting excessive oak flavor. It then undergoes a further 6 months of aging in the bottle before release. The Tibaldi winery adheres to organic farming principles, aiming to foster biodiversity and a healthy ecosystem on their estate.
