The Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes harvest for the Vin Santo have completed their drying process on the straw mats.
The bunches are chosen one by one and the rotten bunches, if any, are removed.
The grapes in the crates are placed in the press and then are pressed.
The most is rich in sugar: 375 grams per liter.
Then begins the long process of aging the grapes in small barrels called “caratelli”.
