Ratings & Reviews

Vinification

Once in the cellar, the grapes are de-stemmed and gently pressed. Fermentation of the must, in contact with the skins, takes place in steel tanks over about ten days at a constant temperature between 26°-28° C with frequent pump-overs.

Aging

The Roero DOCG is aged for 12 months in lightly-toasted wood ( 10hl each Garbellotto wooden barrels) to ensure an excellent structure, bouquet and smoothness and ages another 12 months in the bottle.
