Sweet white wine, a passito version or obtained from dried grapes. The harvest of very ripe grapes of Incrocio Manzoni is done in the middle of September. Next the grapes are stored on wooden racks in special air-ventilated rooms. This way they lose about 30% of initial weight to accumulate sugars and aromas.
