During fermentation, the wine and the grapes skins are mixed daily by hand with pump-over into the lap and delastage to get the maximum out of the product

NOTES
In this red wine is represented Daniele’s ideal wine expression. We dedicate the IGT Brigasco to the Brigasca Land, which symbol was found on a stone of an internal wall in our Corte dei Merli. It is carved in tufa, our local stone. Certainly, it was realized by our ancestors that settle here from Brigasca Land about five centuries ago..
