Passerina 'Vinosophia' Chiusa Grande
The grapes are selected and harvested in boxes in the coolest hours of the day starting from mid-September, upon reaching full technological maturity depending on the sugar content and total acidity.
The winemaking takes place in compliance with the tradition and rules of the production of organic wines by applying the modern principles of oenological technique. The grapes are destemmed, hyper-oxygenated and refrigerated at a temperature of 5-8°C. The must is then clarified by decantation and fermented in a steel tank at a controlled temperature of 14°C. Once fermentation is complete, the coarse lees are separated, while the fine lees remain in contact with the wine for approximately 2 months. During this period, repeated batonnage is carried out so that the lees always remain suspended in the wine. At the end of this period the wine is decanted into steel tanks and stored at a temperature of around 12°C to keep all its organoleptic qualities intact. After a storage period in steel of approximately 3 months the wine is stabilized, filtered and bottled. In all phases of winemaking, to guarantee and protect the authenticity and healthiness of the product, the rules established by the specifications for the production of organic wines are respected. In particular, the application of the winemaking technique by hyper-oxygenation of musts allows the use of very low doses of sulphites for the preservation of wine, significantly lower than those foreseen by community and national regulations.
