We visited Gianni Bernazzi of Azienda Agricola Bellaria in Montalcino to see how the vinification of his wines was going. Gianni is a producer of Brunello di Montalcino and has chosen to adopt the Onda® winemaking system since 2017.
We thank him for writing these words to express the progress of his winemaking:
I chose the Ghidi fermentation tank with the Onda system because I like the possibility of using less chemistry in the wines I produce.
The thing I noticed right away from the first fermentation done in 2017 that the wine coming out of the tank immediately has a nice smoothness and great aromas that from a normal fermentation you don’t get.I call it a more complete wine, and you can feel all that some very good grapes express.
During the phase of aging in wood that is coming to an end, it had a better reaction to wood while retaining all the initial characteristics and developed even more.
The aromas and elegance unlike the other wines in the cellar.
I am glad to have gone down this road, and in the next few years I will integrate more tanks with the wave system.
