At Lacerta winery, located on the same longitude as Saint Emilion and Tuscany, the grape production is standardized through the year in order to achieve a maximum one kilo of grapes per vine. The grapes are carefully selected to obtain the best quality of wines.
The use of gravity in the line of wine processing may bring a plus to the quality of the processed wine. Gravity is to ensure that the grape follows the technological track of wine processing so as to avoid the use of any pumping systems. The process of drainage of the liquid part is naturally performed with no mechanical aggressions, thus resulting a balanced must and finally, after the fermenting, a round, silken wine with pleasant naturalness and fruitiness. The gravitational principle is important especially for its beginning stages in the wine processing as during these stages the must from the grape is more sensitive and more exposed to oxidation and mechanical aggressions.
