Piemonte Chardonnay D.O.C.

Chardonnay selected grapes coming from the south exposed vineyards of San Nicolao hill.
It is different from our Collection wines for two main reasons: it is slightly sparkling and lighter.

HARVEST
Harvesting takes place between 25th August and 5th September, depending on the ripening of the grapes.

WINE MAKING
The grapes are pressed and the obtained must is clarified with enzymes. Then, after a racking made to eliminate the lees, some selected yeasts are introduced to promote the alcoholic fermentation.
At the end of this process the wine is kept on the fermentation lees for 20-25 days, then it is cooled at 12 degrees and racked several times, until it reaches the suitable clarity. It acquires a light foam, thanks to a second fermentation in autoclave, for the presence of residual sugars.
