Vinification of the Azienda Agricola Gorgo Bardolino

The basis for the first-class and wonderfully elegant Bardolino cuvée from Azienda Agricola Gorgo are Corvina, Molinara and Rondinella grapes. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Veneto. Here, the vines dig their roots deep into soils of sedimentary and weathered rock. Bardolino is clearly defined by more than just the Bardolino DOC soil. This Italian wine can literally be described as an Old World wine that presents itself in an extraordinarily impressive way. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately taken to the winery. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Once fermentation is complete, the Bardolino can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for several months.
