History

Winemaker Mihai Banita use a combination of old world winemaking techniques and modern tehnology to make wines that reflect the unique characteristics of individual vineyards or ”terroir” where specific varietals grow best. The fusion of superb vineyard sites and thoughtful winemaking allows LacertA to deliver elegant, expressive wines.

Vinification

Grapes are picked only by hand, after manual sorting on the table. They are then de-stemmed and crushed after the juice is separated from the skins. In stainless-steel we controlled the temperature, set-up 16-18℃ for a good alcoholic fermentation. As the grape extracts its aroma from the territory where it is grown and can taste significantly diverse, ranging from clean and zesty to buttery, rich wines.
