Langhe Rosso MONPRÀ DOC BIO CONTERNO FANTINO

This Piedmont red wine is made from Nebbiolo-Barbera grapes harvested in the vineyards of Monforte d'Alba. The soils here are silty,with good sand and limestone; the vineyards are exposed from the south and southwest, and the altitude ranges from 300 to 400 meters above sea level. Production of this Langhe DOC Rosso Monprà begins relatively late, as the harvest takes place around mid-October. This is followed by maceration and alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled steel, followed by malolactic fermentation in wood. The final refinement phase takes place in French oak wood. The final assembly of the two wines is carried out before bottling.
