Livon Pinot Grigio

Vinification and refining: the grapes are harvested by hand using boxes steeped in a cold horizontal press for eight hours and the must is cleaned through settling. The fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18°c. When the fermentation is over the product thus obtained is not poured off and therefore remains in the same containers to mature for about five months at a constant temperature. At the end of this period the wine is assembled and bottled. There follows a further long period of refining in the bottle before the wine is distributed. Organoleptic characteristics: it is straw yellow colored with slight ash grey reflections. It has a fragrant bouquet recalling vanilla and lime flowers. On the palate it is strong with a long finish.
