The wine purchased is ready for bottling and does not require any addition or treatment; after bottling a deposit will necessarily form at the bottom of the bottle, consisting mainly of natural ferments that will have made your wine sparkling. The optimal period of wine maturation should not be less than three months.

For those who buy our wines in bulk for bottling, we recommend:

Wash bottles thoroughly with water until clear. Clean the equipment to be used for filling, taking care to avoid contamination of any kind. Avoid prolonged contact with the wine with the air.

Since wine is a living matter, it is best to bottle it as soon as possible (preferably within two or three days of purchase) to avoid a fermentation start in the demijohn.

Leave a space between the wine and cork of about five centimetres, ten from the mouth of the bottle.

Use corks that guarantee a perfect seal against the pressure that will develop during fermentation: in the case of corks, use corks that have been paraffinised or lightly oiled with oenological vaseline oil 24 hours before use. Never use other types of oil.

Store bottled wine in rooms with little light, free of unpleasant odours and at the most constant temperature possible (16° to 22° C max.)

If the temperature of the storage environment is too low, the refermentation may have difficulty starting. In this case, an unsightly white veil could be created in the neck of bottles stored upright, due to oxidation of the yeasts in contact with the air. This phenomenon, which disappears during fermentation, does not affect the quality of the finished wine.

Ensure maximum hygiene of the containers that will be used for transport (demijohns, kegs and jerrycans). Always carefully clean and rinse before and after use.
