Terra Di Rovo Caberbet Sauvignon is a 100% natural wine produced from an organic single-variety of grapes without ageing in wooden barrique. During the phases of processing and bottling, we do not add any kind of artificial yeast or sulphites in order to leave the wine free to express itself at better.
At Terra di Rovo we collect the grapes exclusively by hand, deposit them in small boxes and transport them to the cellar within a very short time from the harvest, to preserve the freshness of each individual bunch. We immediately process the grapes with the press and leave them to ferment for a few days.
Fermentation in steel containers takes place in a totally natural way, so as not to change the original aroma and body of the wine in any way. Once the fermentation process is complete, we pour the wine to separate it from the coarse lees. The wine stabilizes with the cold winter, also from the tartaric point of view.
In full respect of the ancient traditions, we carry out every phase of processing in the vineyard and in the cellar during the waning moon days. Once ready, we bottle our natural unfiltered wine and let it refine in bottle for at least 2 years before sharing it.
