This wine Bonarda DOC by Giorgi is cultivated in the area of Oltrepò Pavese, where the winery is very famous. It is composed by 100% Croatina variety, that produces around 90 quintals per hectare. The manual harvest is planned in the second decade of September. The soft pressing is immediately followed by automatic fermentation and maceration at a controlled temperature of 28°C. These processes last usually between 8 and 10 days. Then the complete malolactic fermentation. The aging concludes the production. It is developed in steel containers for six months at controlled temperature.
