Subsequently the wine will receive a microfiltration and than bottled at a pressure of about 2atm. |

Emilio Vada
Emilio Vada farm is located in Coazzolo, a small town close to the line that divides the Monferrato from the Langhe, in the midst of the wine-growing landscapes belonging to the UNESCO heritage.
On these hills for generations the best exposed lands are jealously guarded and handed down from children to children.
A good wine comes only from excellent grapes that can be harvested only in a vineyard that has been followed with precision and passion, accompanying it and respecting it wisely until the harvest.
Piemonte
From Asti Spumante to Barolo, the wines of Piedmont are among Italy’s most prolific and best rated. The region’s pedigree is apparent in its 58 DOC and DOCG zones, and although it is only the sixth largest producer in terms of volume, it has the highest percentage of classified wines in all of Italy. No IGT wine area is identified. This westerly region that borders with Switzerland and France is influenced by the Alps and Apennines (the name Piedmont means "foot of the mountain") and its seasons are very distinctive. Hot, dry summers, cold winters, and temperate springs and autumns are common with occasional fog during harvest time.
Undoubtedly it is the red wines that lead the way in terms of quality and cellaring potential with wines made from the noble Nebbiolo grape. The DOCGs of Barolo, Barbaresco, Gattinara, Ghemme and Roero all represent the grape at its finest: they are complex, alluring wines with extraordinary depth and great ageing potential. Barolo ("king of wines and wine of kings") is made in the Langhe hills with its output of 6 million bottles a year far exceeding that of Barbaresco at less than 2.5 million.
