THE CELLAR
The cellar of La Nascosta is certainly one of the most representative elements of the estate.
The Nascosta cellar is embedded in the hillside, with a long façade of stones coming from rocks extracted from the vineyard fields, combined with Corten panels and a garden cover. Fully integrated in the landscape, the cellar confirms the name of La Nascosta as the “Hidden” Estate.
Vinification room
Consistent with the different varieties, the grapes are separately treated and aged in steel and cement vats or in tonneaux (micro-vinification). Using the modern technologies, such as full temperature and humidity control, and careful and continuous professional follow-up, the wines are accompanied in their evolution to achieve the highest quality end-product.
THE BARRIQUE CELLAR
The barrique cellar is equipped with a system that allows precise thermo-hygrometric control of the environment. La Nascosta, after a long work carried out with international Tonnelerie, has decided to invest the aging in wood on 500 liter Tonneaux.
The ambient air that envelops the wood in the tonneaux is periodically treated so that the humidity rate is optimal for the correct exchange of oxygen and aromas during the entire aging process.
Thanks to a patented system, the air is periodically treated so that the bacterial percentage in the air does not produce molding processes on the surfaces
