## Wine making process

The NADA Langhe Nebbiolo Organic 2021 undergoes traditional winemaking. Grapes are hand-picked in October. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at 26-28°C with frequent pumping over, followed by a maceration period of 20-30 days. Malolactic fermentation is completed. The wine is aged for 8-9 months in used 500-liter Allier tonneaux, with additional aging in a mix of 500 and 1,000-liter barrels, none of which are new. Some aging may also occur in large oak barrels and casks.
