Winemaker:
Bisso A.
One part of the Pinot Nero is loaded in the tank as whole bunches, the second part is pressed and the must is pored over the whole bunches until it fully covers them. As soon as the external must finishes fermenting the grapes are destemmed and then pressed, then the wine finishes fermentation without further maceration. Aged in neutral old oak for 8 months. The Freisa, coming from the same cru, is vinified in a stadard way, then kept in glass demijones for 9 months.
About Quila
Information provided directly by the winery.
Information
Quila is a small experimental project based in Neive (Barbaresco region), with vineyards spread across the Langhe and Roero, certified organic since 2023. A small portion of the grapes is purchased from other local winegrowers. The winery is a member of FIVI. The Langhe vineyards are certified "Sorì Eroici" (Heroes of the Hills) with slopes ranging from 39% to 51%. The Roero vineyard has an official State classification as a "historic and heroic vineyard", with slopes ranging from 62% to 69% and is worked totally manually. Most of the wines are experimental: Orange, Pét-Nat, amphora, "wet" carbonic maceration, and others. The Barbaresco, Roero Bianco, and Roero Rosso are more classic.
