Punset Langhe Arneis
Details
Marina Marcarino was destined for the vineyards. She is a force in Piedmont and a sparkling diamond for organics in this area. She truly has her finger on the pulse of Langhe.
'The grapes are harvested by hand and placed in perforated boxes to ensure the best preservation until the processing stage. About 50 percent of the grapes are destemmed and placed in spontaneous fermentation with the help of indigenous yeasts. Racked after a few days, the resulting must is added to that obtained from the soft pressing of the whole grapes.
Fermentation takes place slowly at a temperature contained in the 18°-19° C range. Alcoholic fermentation is followed, in vintages that permit, by malolactic fermentation. This is followed by a batonage on the noble lees for 7-8 months. Punset's Langhe DOC Arneis is deliberately structured and complex and is offered to the market in the second part of the year following the harvest.' - Punset
