The wine of Minis "... gives spark to love, wings to thoughts and fireplace warmth to friendship." (Dr. Gyorgy Csavossy)
White wines and rosés are mostly made in a reductive way so that they conserve their freshness and fruity flavour. The temperature of the fermentation is controlled and kept at 15C° maximum by excluding the oxygen in steel tanks of 10000 hl. The spontaneous fermentation ends in about 2-3 months, and is followed by stabilization and a quick bottling at a low temperature. These lighter, reductive wines mature in bottles for another 2-3 months before being introduced to the market.
