Wine production in these lands has been documented since 1300, confirming the area's ancient agricultural vocation. The vineyards stretch along the \u003cstrong\u003eVia di Castiglioni\u003c\/strong\u003e, an ancient Roman road that gives a strong geographical identity to the production. The characteristics of the land are reflected in a red wine with a \u003cstrong\u003ebalanced and bold\u003c\/strong\u003e character, capable of evolving beautifully over the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter destemming, the grapes ferment in \u003cstrong\u003etemperature-controlled stainless steel tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e, with constant and gentle pumping over to ensure controlled extraction.
