Italian Red Wine
2018 Podere Monastero La Pineta, Pinot Nero IGT Italian Red Wine
Is created with this philosophy; every vine is tended right from pruning, setting out immediately to create a product of the very highest quality. The training system is strictly Guyot, never exceeding 6-7 buds per vine; the production per plant is around 400 grams which, after being harvested exclusively by hand, undergo temperature-controlled alcoholic fermentation in vats made of French oak (Allier) for about 14 days. After being racked, the wine is transferred into barriques (also made of Allier oak which has undergone medium toasting) where malolactic fermentation takes place. At the end of this process, the wine is decanted and returned to barriques for a further 9 months before being bottled.
