Vinification | There is a yield here of 1,500 kilos per hectare and a production of 1,200 bottles. At Terroir al Limit, there is one form of vinification for all red wines. The whole bunches are brought to the cellar in 10 kg boxes and put directly into the barrel. When the barrel is full it is closed and fermentation starts in a completely natural way without adding yeast or any additives. The temperature remains between 20 ° and 28 °. After the first fermentation, the must is pressed and a second fermentation takes place in order to vinify it completely dry. After years of working with different barrels and sizes, this wine is now made only with 1200 liter Stockinger casks. This is an upbringing of 20 months. At bottling the wine is quite reductive with even some gas left. This makes the wine very fresh and vital which leads to a wine with a lot of fraicheur and tension. |
