Cerasuolo D’Abruzzo

We use stainless steel tanks for the vinification process. The Montepulciano graoes for our Cerasuolo rosè wine are harvested earlier than those for our red wines and they undergo a cold maceration in order to achieve the characteristics we are seeking and to extract the grape’s primary aromas. This is followed by a fining and stabilizing in stainless steel once again at a controlled temperature no higher than 20°C. Sulphur dioxine is used in minimal doses
