Viticulture
The harvest takes place in September, when grapes are ripe.
Vineyard
The grapes come from vineyards in the center of Italy, where the climate is Mediterranean but gradually becomes more continental and mountainous inland. The temperature variations given by the altitudes of the hills favor excellent ripening, but also concentration and finesse of the aromas in the grapes. The vineyards are old, 30 years old or more.
Vinification
The grapes are de-stemmed and very softly pressed. Fermentation lasts 10 days at 20-25°C with selected yeasts. The wine is stabilized and then filtered with a cross-flow filter.
Aging
5 months in stainless steel tanks.
