Great balance based on volume and smoothness. Merlot gives generosity and freshness.
Notes of blackberry, ripe cherry and a fresh mentholated balsamic precede a sip that is as storable as it is complete.

Alcoholic fermentation and maceration
The destemmed bunches are not pressed so as to respect the maximum integrity of the skins. During the alcoholic fermentation, frequent punching down is carried out to facilitate the extraction of aromas, colour and tannins from the marc. Once the maceration, which varies from 8 to 12 days, is completed, the racking is carried out.
Malolactic fermentation and refinement
After racking, the wine is decanted and undergoes malolactic fermentation. This lasts about 10 days and occurs at a temperature of 20°C. Volante Rosso DOC Bolgheri is aged in 500-liter oak barrels. Before being released for consumption, it spends 6 months in the bottle.
