Vineyard

These south-west facing vineyards are in the Monferrato hills at altitudes of 250 - 400M above sea level. The vines have an average age of 20 years old and are are trained using the low Guyot trellis system with a planting density of 4,000 – 4,500 vines per hectare.

Vinification

The crushed grapes are chilled in stainless steel and kept in contact with the skins for two to three days. Grapes are pressed in a modern pneumatic press and the must is fermented in a pressurized tank but fermentation is halted to leave 5.5% ABV and approximately 100g/l residual sugar.

Tasting Note

Delicate aromas of fresh crushed raspberries and rose petals. The palate is lightly sparkling with fresh red berry fruit. The sweetness is perfectly balanced with mouth-watering acidity and a juicy finish.
