Red winemaking
Vinification in red is a process which allows the production of red wines using red berried grapes. After the harvest, the grapes are destemmed and left to ferment together with the skins, which give the wine its characteristic red colour. During fermentation, the sugar from the grapes are transformed into alcohol, creating a type of wine rich in aromas and tannins. Later, the wine undergoes an aging phase, which can take place in wooden barrels or in bottles, to further refine the organoleptic profile.
The characteristics of a red wine
A red wine is distinguished by its intense color which can vary from purplish to garnet. On the nose, notes of red fruit, spices, aromatic herbs and sometimes hints of wood or tobacco can be perceived. In the mouth, a good red wine is balanced between sweetness, acidity, tannins and alcohol, offering a pleasant structure and persistence. Red wines are often appreciated for their complexity and aging potential, but they can also be enjoyed young for appreciating their freshness and fruitiness.
