OUR SYSTEMS

The attention to the quality of the product is the common element, which allowed us to better respond to the customer's needs: today, Fattoria del Cerro uses a Win&Clear tank-to-tank system and a Win&Guard microfiltration system for the bottling phase.
The idea of ​​an orthogonal microfiltration system for the tank-to-tank phase arises from the need to filter quality wines without altering their taste and aromas. Our Win&Clear system was chosen after a comparison with a crossflow system, compared to which it was less impacting from an organoleptic point of view without sacrificing the effectiveness of the process.
Furthermore, an orthogonal filtration system has allowed us to support the customer in its growth strategy, thanks to its performance both in terms of speed and efficiency in automation.
Likewise, the Win&Guard microfiltration system has led to a completely automatic management of the bottling process.
