The Langhe Nebbiolo DOC 2021 – Fortemasso is produced in the Castelletto region. This is the best production region for Barolo. The vines have an east and south-east exposure, on sloping land with sandy and limestone soil.
Fortemasso wines thus highlight the distinctive characteristics of each grape variety. They therefore reveal the clear and recognizable natural traits that derive from the soil and climate of each vintage. In addition, the unique combination of geological characteristics and the regional microclimate in which the vineyards of Fortemasso are located produce deep, mineral and very elegant wines that continue to refine with age.
Winemaking
Thus, from the moment the grapes are picked by hand, they are immediately pressed. They are then fermented in stainless steel tanks with temperature control. Thus, after several days, the must and the wine are separated from the marc and the fermentation continues. Following the malolactic fermentation, the wine will be refined in steel to end up being bottled in the spring.
