Soil composition Galestro-clayey characterised by the important presence of alberese masses, resulting in a conspicuous presence of skeleton in the soil.
Vinification The bunches of grapes, selected in the vineyard and harvested by hand, are destemmed and crushed, and the must thus obtained is sent for fermentation at a controlled temperature. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine remains in contact with the skins for 15-20 days, followed by racking into cement tanks to facilitate decantation, where malolactic fermentation begins.
Ageing 27 months in 50-hl French oak casks.
Allergens Contains sulphites
