WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Lenotti Soave Classico begins with a soft pressing of the Garganega grapes, followed by a brief maceration with the skins. The must is then separated, and fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures of 15-16°C. Following fermentation, the wine is preserved in thermoconditioned stainless steel tanks to maintain its freshness. Bottling is conducted using a sterile cold bottling line. Cantine Lenotti employs innovative technology aimed at reducing sulfurous anhydride levels, a technique designed to preserve the wine's genuine character.
