Winemaking

Upon arrival in the cellar, the grapes were sorted on two different occasions, once before destemming and again immediatelyafter to guarantee that only perfectlyripe berries reached fermentation vats. Keeping with tradition, each single vineyard parcel was subdivided into smaller blocksand the grapes were harvested separately based on
climate trendsand individual characteristics of each grape varietyand then fermented separately. Fermentation and maceration took place in temperature controlled stainless steelvats for 18 - 25 days. After racking operations, the wine was transferred directlyinto barriques where malolactic fermentation was completed bythe end of the year. In February, wine from the very bestvineyard blocks was selected and the final blend was made. Guado al Tasso was again transferred into new French oak barriques where itaged up until bottling which took place in May 2024.
