SG '67 Pinot Nero Oltrepò Pavese DOC​

Description :

Vineyard Location: The grapes used to make this wine are harvested from a careful selection of grapes from Cordero San Giorgio's oldest vineyard, planted in 1967 and facing southwest on their estate in Santa Giuletta.
Vinification: The grapes are de-stemmed but not pressed, in order to keep them whole. Cold pre-fermentation maceration is followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. A short pumpover is performed each day. At the end of fermentation, racking and malolactic fermentation follow in barriques.
Aging: After approximately ten months in French oak barriques of various origins, the wine ages for approximately ten months in large barrels. After that, the wine rests in the bottle for at least ten months before release.
