Production area
The name "448 s.l.m." refers to the geographical positioning of the historical farmstead of Cantina Girlan, which is located at an altitude of 448 m above sea level. The Vernatsch grapes grow in several vineyards of our production area. Here, the soils are rich in minerals, the result of ice age sedimentation.
Winemaking
The grapes are picked by hand and delivered in small containers to prevent excess pressure on the grapes. Destemming and a slow must fermentation at a controlled temperature take place in stainless steel tanks. Due to longer maceration time more color and tannin is extracted from the grapes. The malolactic fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks, whereas the aging takes place in concrete tanks.
