Vinification of the Miklus Malvasia Collio from Draga

This powerful white wine from Italy is made from the Malvasia Bianca grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. Here, the vines drive their roots deep into soils of clay and sandstone. After being harvested by hand, the grapes reach the press house as quickly as possible. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation in large wooden barrels at controlled temperatures follows. After the end of fermentation, the powerful Miklus Malvasia Collio is aged for several more months in oak barrels.
