Schioppettino DOC TUNELLA

This red wine from Cantina Tunella is made from pure Schioppettino grapes from the hills of Eastern Friuli. The vineyards benefit from soil rich in marl and sandstone known as "ponca": the harvest is carried out by hand during the first week of October, followed by destemming and pressing. The must obtained peels for about twenty days during which numerous reassemblies are carried out to promote the release of the color and noble components from the peels. The refinement takes place in the cellar for two years, with further final rest in the bottle.
