Our cellar

The construction of the first section of the cellar dates back to the late 90th Century, right under the house; an expansion followed at the beginning of the 20th Century.

Originally part of the barrels were made  of  durmast and chestnut as well as concrete; today some of the barrels are still the original one, others have been substituted with iron barrels.

The completely underground cellar has the right humidity level, around 70%, partially fuelled by a part of the floor, still made of the original bricks of the foundation. Temperature has limited fluctuations, going between 12 in winter to 22 in summer; this avoid polyphenols falls in warm periods and tartaric acid precipitations in cold periods.

Due to these peculiarities, our cellar completely fulfils his role in must fermentation and wine preservation.
