WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Sagace Langhe Nebbiolo 2022 is produced using 100% Nebbiolo grapes. The winemaking process begins with hand-harvesting in early October. Spontaneous fermentation occurs with an extended maceration period of 35-45 days. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 14 months in large, old oak barrels, then transferred to concrete tanks. The wine is bottled without filtration.
