Vinification of Sauvignon Blanc Collio DOC from Livon

In the vineyards of Dolegna del Collio, the Sauvignon grapes for this white wine grow on marly loamy soil. Harvested by hand, the grapes are macerated for eight hours at cold temperature in the horizontal press, then the must is clarified by natural decantation. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18° C. The wine obtained is then decanted naturally. The wine thus obtained remains in the same vats at a constant temperature for about 5 months after fermentation. Finally, the wine is bottled, where it matures for a certain time before being sold. The Sauvignon Blanc Collio from Livon can be stored for 4 to 5 years.
