1988 : birth of a new wine-making unit with automatic "pigeage" Fabbri vats.
We can reach perfection in the working of wine thanks to this equipment.
These stainless steel vats can hold 50.000 tons of grapes.
The wine-making method is the same as the one used at the Roman period. The "pigeage" consists in punching the rape cap in the working wine by using the feet.
Nowadays, the cap is punched by stainless steel rakes.
The advantage of the modern method is that the wines are never in contact with the air and keep all their fragrance and aroma.
