On the other hand, the part dedicated to ageing in wood is made by adjoining rooms separated by sectors. Here are housed different woods that have been identified to enhance the other characteristics of the crus during their elevation. The original circular Slavonian oak casks of 50 and 60 hl mainly house the vintage Brunello. The 60 hl truncated cone-shaped vats are used to age Poggio al Granchio after a brief passage in barriques. The 52 hl oval casks are used for the ageing of Vigna del Lago, while the 300-litre French barriques are used for the ageing of Vigna Spuntali. Read more
