Vinification of Ezio Poggio Caespes Colli Tortonesi Terre Di Libarna

This powerful red wine from Italy is a cuvée made from the Barbera and Bonarda grape varieties. In Piedmont, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay and limestone soils. After hand-picking, the grapes are taken straight to the press house. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Caespes Colli Tortonesi Terre Di Libarna can continue to harmonize for several months on the fine lees.
