At the fifth or sixth day the wine, that has still residual sugar, is separated from marcs and let it complete his alcoholic fermentation. After 20-25 days the secondary fermentation starts, malolactic fermentation, without the addition of selected yeasts.

Teroldigo is a name that tell a long tradition of the family Fedrizzi. With this wine we want to express the real essence of Teroldego, telling his story through the natural aroma given by grapes and his yeasts. In Teroldigo it can be found the authenticity of this variety, given by grapes produced in a polyclonal vineyard, wanted by the owner Giovanni. We produce wine with a method used by our family up to the fifties of the last century, making fermentations in cement tanks without adding any kind of selected yeasts.
We can define Teroldigo as a "an ancient wine for a modern drink"!
