Animae Cabernet Veneto I.G.T. Wine Without Sulphites

Perlage Winery presents for its range a sulphite-free wine, Animae Cabernet Veneto IGT. The company roots its deepest philosophy in respect for nature and the desire to offer a product that expresses the utmost purity of wine. It was a real challenge: sulphites in wine are firstly, in small part, self-produced during the fermentation process by the yeasts that transform the must into wine. For sparkling wines there is a second fermentation, needed to develop the sparkle (Charmat method), which turns them from still wines into sparkling wines. Once again, we have sulphite production. To overcome this, Perlage Winery identified a yeast strain with low self-production of sulphur dioxide. Another aspect is that vinification takes place in the complete absence of oxygen to prevent oxidative phenomena in the wine. Animae Cabernet without sulphites boasts a lovely ruby colour with violet reflections, born after a temperature-controlled fermentation in steel tanks and storage in the complete absence of oxygen. 10% of Animae Cabernet Veneto IGT is aged for several months in oak barriques, giving the wine an elegant structure with pleasant hints of vanilla.
