THE
CELLAR
|
|
Being a new construction (started in 1996), Scopone's Cellars have been designed with
the aim of integrating at its best the most modern winemaking
technologies and the wisdom and experience of the centuries-old
Tuscan wine-producing tradition.
Provided with vanguard technologies, chosen by analyzing
the best European and international benchmarks, the
Cellar is certainly a model among small- and medium-size
cellars in Montalcino.
Although the settings be either interred or semi-interred,
in order to maintain the temperature stable even in
adverse meteorological conditions, the structure is
provided with vanguard stabilizing systems.
New equipments, conceived for the future's oenology,
such as the pumps, the deraspa-pigiatrice and the
pneumatic press, all rigorously made out of stainless
steel, harmonize with elements belonging to the
best world-wide wine-making traditions, like the
French oak barriques, together with some American oak, all coming from the best French "tonneleries", and the Slavonia oak
barrels.
The wine-cellar, provided with stainless steel tubs
of different capacities, is characterized by the presence of a set of
Cavalzani's "Tinelle" (recently conceived
tubs, cone-shaped) provided with a special murk
soft-smashing system.
Each tinella has its own control panel that not
only guarantees the temperature control system, but
also autonomously and automatically manages part of the winemaking process with its individual process.
This innovative winemaking system allows the Azienda
Agricola Scopone's Cellar to obtain wines rich
of color, aromas, perfume, and highly equilibrated.
