Vinification of the Faccinelli Luca Rosso Di Valtellina Matteo Bandello

This balanced red wine from Italy is vinified from the Nebbiolo grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Lombardy. Here, the vines sink their roots deep into soils of sand and gravel. After being hand-picked, the grapes quickly reach the winery. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks and small wood at controlled temperatures. The fermentation is followed by a maturation of 10 months in French oak barrels.
