Fuorilemura Chardonnay Puglia IGP

Vinification: The grapes, rigorously harvested by hand and selected, are transferred to the winery for destemming, kept away from oxygen by the adding of CO2. Subsequently they stand in the press for about 2 hours at a controlled temperature of about 15°C, to help extract the flavor precursors from the skins. After a light pressing, from which the flower must is obtained, the product is decanted in stainless steel tanks. Fermentation at about 14°C and fermentation in temperature-controlled barriques follow. The obtained wine then refines on fine lees, which are stirred to the mass every 48/72 hours, by the technique of bâtonnage, which favors the release of natural mannoproteins of the skins skins, giving the wine more stability and greater taste/olfactory complexity.
