Lenght of aging: the use of fermentation temperatures close to 17°/18° retard the depletion of sugars to mid
to late October. The lees generated in fermentation are maintained in suspension with the specific task to
soften the taste and perfectly integrate acidity
Clarification and filtration: a clarifying treatment with bentonite is used to lower the of the loads of
turbidity due to protein oxidation, which do not fit a white wine ready to drink. The filtering used only aims
to impeed the malolactic degradation.
