WINEMAKING NOTES

separate for each individual variety and almost always preceded by a brief cold maceration of the grapes in a closed press. After static decantation and adjustment of the fine lees, the musts are fermented in temperature-controlled steel tanks. The subsequent refinement on the fine lees enhances its organoleptic properties.
