Winemaking

From southern Apulia, in the provinces of Taranto and Brindisi. Vinification is traditional, with daily pumping-over for the first week and every other day in the second week of fermentation, at a temperature of 24-28°C. After alcoholic fermentation, the skins are racked and softly pressed to set the best conditions for malolactic fermentation. Aged in wooden barrels. The sheet gives two different optimal serving temperatures: 18-20°C in the main specification, and 16-18°C in the food-pairing note.
