| 气候 |
Altitude: 300 m. a.s.l. Exposure: South, South-East. |
| 土地的组成 |
Clay soils rich in calcareous marl. |
| 收成 |
The grapes, harvested into small 20 kg crates, are brought immediately into the cellar. |
| 酿造 |
If necessary, they are cooled in a cooling cell to a temperature of 12/15 °C and then pressed. They are not subject to traditional destemming in order to prevent the stems from being damaged and to very gently extract only the free-run juice. The must decants in the tank for 24/36 hours, during which time the coarser sediments settle and are separated from the must by racking. At this point, the clear must is brought to a temperature of 16 °C to facilitate the start of alcoholic fermentation, which usually lasts at least three weeks. |
| 陈年 |
The wine is racked between eight and ten days after the completion of fermentation and remains on its fine lees until the beginning of spring, when preparation for bottling begins. |
| 匹配 |
Excellent as an aperitif owing to its crispness, it goes well with starters and with rice and pasta dishes. |
