History and Winemaking

“Don Pepè” is obtained from a selection of the best grapes in the Carmiano area. The process begins with 15 days of maceration in steel. The wine ages first in steel for 6 months, then its cycle is completed with a full **18 months in American oak barriques** and a further 6 months in the bottle. This long aging imparts structure and complexity.
