| Origin | Twenty-five hectares on the hill of Montepirolo form a single vineyard, with a mainly eastern exposure, where the guyot and spur pruned cordon training systems are used. Montepirolo is made from a selection of the best grapes from these 25 hectares |

| Harvest | Merlot is harvested in early September, Cabernet in late September/early October. The grapes are picked by hand, placed in small crates, taken immediately to the cellar and transferred to a conveyor belt for hand-sorting |
| Wine making | Montepirolo is the result of a well-balanced assemblage of the wine from three grape varieties vinified separately. The skin maceration time will vary depending on vintage characteristics, thus intensifying the wine’s aromas. After racking-off, the wine is transferred to barrique where the assemblage takes place. Complete malolactic fermentation |
