Harvest

The grapes come from the central part of the historical Vigna del Pino. After light cluster trimming and leaf thinning in mid-July, we further selected the clusters shortly before harvest. The grapes are hand-harvested in 15 kg boxes, carefully selecting the best ones.

Vinification

Destemming and gentle crushing of the grapes. Natural fermentation with indigenous yeasts in an upright untoasted French oak vat. 15-day maceration. During maceration, the wine is punched down and pumped over several times, depending on the kinetics of the fermentation. A natural malolactic fermentation takes place in the autumn following the harvest in small second-fill oak barrels.

Aging

12 months in 25 hl barrels, 6 months in stainless-steel vats and a minimum of additional 12 months in bottle.
