Wine Project

It is crucial to have a clear understanding of where you want to go and to define the project's objectives.

A medium-term timeline is ideal for effectively planning and structuring the production process, from the vineyard to the finished wine, focusing on a well-targeted and mutually agreed selection.

Grapes selection

Quality wines cannot be produced from inferior raw materials.

Vineyard management and the soil's pedological characteristics are crucial starting points for selecting fruits that possess the ideal qualities for the project.

Appassimento

The client consults with the Furia agronomic team, which provides direct vineyard consulting and supervision of the grape ripening curve for organizing the harvest.

Subsequently, our agronomists collaborate with the Furia enological team to determine the optimal sugar concentration and solids level for the project.

Furia’s Appassimento (withering) facilities with controlled ventilation and humidity comply with all international food hygiene standards and are BRC-IFS certified.

The Appassimento (withering) technicians monitor the health status of the grapes daily, and the laboratory team conducts weekly sample analyses to track the progress of the drying process until the desired result is achieved.

Grapes processing

The client collaborates with the Furia enological team, who expertly tailor their services to meet the client's specifications to craft a wine that truly represents them.

The winery boasts a fermentative capacity of about 10,000 hl of wine per batch and can manage both large volumes and smaller lots under 100 hl.

In red wine production, malolactic fermentation is only performed after alcoholic fermentation to allow for varied aging techniques.

Speed is essential in white wine production; immediately after pressing, the musts are clarified by flotation and inoculated.

The advanced nitrogen system ensures protection against uncontrolled oxidation.

For sparkling wine bases, which require high acidity, the agronomic team samples the grapes directly in the vineyard to strategically plan the subsequent cellar operations.

Refinement and aging

The client consults with the Furia enological team to jointly determine the most suitable aging process and its timing.

Aging can be carried out in various types of wooden barrels or using the sophisticated micro-oxygenation system in steel tanks.

‍

Wines identification

All wines undergo panel tests by the Furia enological team in collaboration with the client.

This phase is extremely important for defining the blend with the perfect aromatic intensity and structure before proceeding to bottling.

‍

Ready to bottle

It is crucial to stabilize the wine to ensure its long-lasting preservation in the bottle and to filter it from all possible solid residues of fermentation.

Certification is the final step before bottling approval, and it is provided by external regulatory bodies that verify the wine meets the characteristics outlined in production standards and is safe for human consumption.
