The grapes of the different varieties are harvested manually from the Borgo San Donino vineyard; in the cellar they are crushed and de-stemmed. The maceration of the skins usually lasts only a few hours until the desired coloring intensity of the must is obtained, then the racking is carried out. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out at a low temperature, as soon as the wine is finished it is cooled to prevent malolactic fermentation, the clear wine is then refined in steel tanks until January.
