Vinification
Depending on the variety, the grapes are carefully selected in the vineyard between the end of September and the end of October and are harvested by hand. After the harvest, the grapes are dried on racks called «arelle» until at least the end of January, as is customary with Amarone production. The grapes lose around 40 per cent of their own weight here. Simultaneously, sugar, flavour and extract are concentrated, lending the future wine a unique aroma and great concentration. After the aforementioned drying, the grapes are fermented at low temperatures in a stainless steel tank. Once fermentation is complete, the young wine matures for 36 months, partly in barriques and partly in 30 hl oak barrels. Following the blending of the two batches, the finished wine remains in bottles for another eight months before hitting the shelves.
