This is the most important and delicate phase, certainly the one that requires the highest degree of sensitivity in terms of taste, professionalism and experience. The composition of the Blend makes it possible to obtain a product which is ready for the bottle and that has the chemical and organoleptic characteristics demanded by the client.
