Thanks to this method, the grapes increase their sugar concentration by 25-30%. In January the grapes are crushed and then the fermentation starts. After 25-30 days the must is transferred into stainless steel tanks. Once the malolactic fermentation is completed, the wine matures in barriques (special barrels) for 24-36 months and is then refined in bottles for some months. This wine is the result of top-quality grapes and can be produced only in the best vintages.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e Recommended with red meat, game, grilled meat, braised meat and seasoned cheese as well as at the end of a meal, as a meditation wine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Domain\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eWhen we think of history and tradition we cannot do anything other than imagine distant and forgotten times.
