Description of the Chardonnay 2021 of the Omina Romana winery

The rows of Chardonnay, arranged in an east-west orientation, are cultivated in a specific area with a sandy loam composition. The management of the vineyard is scrupulously carried out according to the climatic trend thanks to the mainly manual work of our team. The grapes thus obtained reach perfect aromatic maturity allowing the production of a wine of character, with a strong mineral component.

Harvesting and vinification

Manual harvest according to the homogeneity of the ripening with subsequent selection of the bunch and destemming. The grapes undergo cold pre-fermentation maceration for about 48 hours, after which they are softly pressed. Fermentation and vinification take place partly in steel tanks and partly in new French oak barriques. During the refinement the wine matures on its lees for 6 months. Aging in bottle for 6 months.
