Sfacciato

Monferrato Rosso

Sfacciato

This wine is produced with grapes from our vineyards located in the Bricco region in the town of Nizza Monferrato.

Vinification took place with traditional methods and maceration with the skins lasted 10 days. Following alcoholic fermentation, it was kept at an optimum temperature (23°C) to facilitate malolactic fermentation.

During the spring following the harvest, the wine was aged in small French oak casks for a period of 12-14 months.

Following further aging in steel, it was then bottled.
