Borgo San Daniele
In the cellar of Borgo San Daniele, there is an effort to preserve the intrinsic memory of the wines through a sort of Solera system of indigenous yeasts, that is, recovering at the end of each vinification the racking, which will then assist in the fermentation of the new must. The operations are conducted in an extremely precise and controlled manner, from the selection of the grapes to the temperature of the processes, which generally take place in steel with aging in oak for some labels.
Grigio, among which the black berry of Pignolo also makes an appearance. Other varieties with a more international appeal are included, starting from Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon, to Pinot Bianco and Riesling. Since the early 1990s, the choice of a high planting density has been realized, while the vineyards are left grassed and the balances and biodiversity of the soils are preserved in every way. Treatments involve the use of copper and sulfur, while systemic products are banned in favor of natural infusions based on nettle, horsetail, and dandelion. The peculiar composition of the soils offers excellent drainage capacity for excess water and refraction of light and daytime heat thanks to the widespread presence of gravelly skeleton. The microclimate is equally special: defined by a mix of mitigating marine influences and cold northern currents, it benefits the grapes with significant thermal excursions.indigenous, meaning recovering at the end of each vinification the racking, which will then assist in the fermentation of the new must.
