Lapo Berti Nebbiolo Rose Petillant Naturel, Piedmont, Italy
$46.00
The fruit was picked by hand in early October, destemmed, crushed, and the juice was left to macerate overnight (12 hours), giving the rosé its color. The juice was pressed and then spontaneously and slowly fermented in an open stainless steel tank without additions. Once dry (after about 8 weeks) the wine was racked and moved outdoors to avoid malolactic fermentation. The wine was kept on its fine lees in stainless steel until spring time (about 6 months) and then racked twice before manual sur-tirage in April. The liqueur de tirage used for bottle fermentation was unfermented grape must that was frozen at vintage. Wines were hand bottled and sealed with crown caps and labeled as non vintage. The rosé was made without the use of selected yeasts, malolactic bacteria, copper sulfate, fructose, tannins, acids, fining agents, filtration or sulphites
