After harvest, the grapes are gently transported in small crates to preserve integrity. They are de-stemmed and undergo fermentation with skin maceration lasting approximately 14–18 days, extracting colour, tannins and aromatic complexity. The wine is then drawn off and undergoes malolactic fermentation to soften acidity and enhance roundness, contributing to a more harmonious and balanced profile.

Information
Wine making in Piemonte, Italy, is deeply rooted in tradition. The region is well known for the high quality red wines produced from Barbera, Nebbiolo and Dolcetto grapes and we are fortunate at our Fontanavi vineyard to be producing in the same terroir as some of the region’s most famous wineries. At Tenuta Il Finale we believe in minimal intervention, biodiversity and sustainability and invest time and care in the quality of our soils and the selection of our handpicked grapes to deliver you outstanding wines from this region of Italy. Yields are kept purposefully small resulting in intensely flavourful fruit across our whites, rose and reds.
