Perla Rossa Cabernet Sauvignon IGT Colline Pescaresi 2020 Biologico - Chiusa Grande

CABERNET-SAUVIGNON

The harvest takes place during the third decade of September, when the grapes have reached complete biological ripeness, evaluated on the basis of sugar content, pH, total acidity and polyphenolic potential. The grapes are harvested by hand, respecting their integrity and organoleptic characteristics.

The vinification takes place respecting tradition and respecting the most modern methods of red wine production. After the selection of the best grapes, the same are de-stemmed, refrigerated at 8 ° C and placed in the winemaker, where the skins remain in contact with the must for about 20 days, at a controlled temperature that from the initial 8 ° C rises up to a maximum of 25 ° C. During this period periodic pumping over and delestage are carried out which allow a more homogeneous contact of the skins with the must. This favors the extraction of the noble elements of the skins that will bring the personality to the future wine. At the end of the alcoholic fermentation and the extraction phase, the wine is separated from the skins by soft pressing and left to decant in steel tanks, where the malolactic fermentation starts with the inoculation of malolactic bacteria. Once this second fermentation is finished, the wine is decanted into steel tanks waiting to be bottled. The wine is released on the market after a further 3 months of bottle aging. The rules laid down by the legislation for the production of organic wines are respected in all stages of winemaking, as a guarantee and protection of the genuineness and wholesomeness of the wine.
