| Story | Lagrein with a yield of 50 hectolitres per hectare. Characteristic pentagonal trilobate leaf with U-shaped petiolar sinus, which fades to red-brown in autumn; its bunch is short and stocky, sometimes with a clearly visible wing, with berries covered with persistent bloom. |
| Origin | The best exposed foothills of the Adige Valley and Vallagarina on the conoids of Besenello |
| Climate | climates in these areas are sub-continental, with cold, often snowy winters and hot summers, but with a good temperature range between day and night. In Vallagarina, we also find the beneficial influence of the Ora del Garda, a pleasant breeze that rises in the afternoon hours from Lake Garda. |
| Soil composition | On the hills of the Adige Valley, the vineyards are located on glacial or morainic terraces, with brown, moderately deep, well-drained soils with a gravelly-stony matrix. In Vallagarina the vineyards are found on conoids formed by the deposits of ancient torrents, where we have calcareous, well-structured and well-drained soils, with many pebbles and a fair clay content. |
| Yield per hectare | 50 hl/ha |
| Fermentation temperature | 28-29 °C |
| Wine making | Vinification is the traditional red wine method, with fermentation taking place at a temperature of 28-29 °C and lengthy maceration on the skins in small stainless steel tanks to allow better contact between must and solids. |
| Aging | After alcoholic fermentation, it is placed in barriques where malolactic fermentation takes place, after which it completes its ageing in wood. Before bottling, it undergoes further ageing in small oak barrels. |
| Total acidity | 4.7 gr/L |
