CABERNET SAUVIGNON TERRE ROSSE

QUALITY DRY RED WINE

Vinification and maturing: Alcohol fermentation begins at the temperature of 25 to 28 ºC for a total of 5 to 10 days. The malolactic fermentation and the maturation period are carried out in stainless steel barrels for 18 months, after which the wine is aged for an additional 6 months in the bottle to achieve balance.
