Winemaking and Refinement

The selected musts are first pressing and are vinified in small oak barrels, chosen with rigorous selection of the raw material that composes them and with a maturation of at least 3 years. The wine will rest for another 6 months sur lies and undergo malolactic fermentation. A demanding selection allows us to choose the best among the 28 base wines that will make up Annamaria Clementi; which will be assembled by gravity in a specific container. Then follows the refermentation in the bottle and the refinement on the yeasts for a good 101 months.
