The Zibibbo grapes were harvested in late August once they had reached the desired level of maturity. They were then softly pressed at 0.2 bar and the must was clarified at 12°C for 24 hours. The must was then fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures of 15°C with selected yeasts, to preserve and retain the aromatic profile of the Zibibbo variety.
