The grapes are softly pressed to extract the free run juice, which is fermented at controlled temperature (16-18 °C) to obtain the base wine. This undergoes then a second alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 15°-16°: the yeasts fermenting the sugars produce alcohol and some carbon dioxide, which remains trapped in the wine. When the desired level of residual sugar is reached, the fermentation is stopped cooling down the wine. The final stages are the filtration and the bottling.
