Vineyard and terroir
The hillside vineyards lie between 300 and 400 m a.s.l., predominantly facing south and southwest. Vines are trained using both spurred cordon and Guyot systems.
Grapes
100% Sangiovese. The wine is conceived as a fresh, youthful interpretation of Umbrian Sangiovese for drinking throughout a meal.
Vinification
The grapes are picked by hand around the end of September. Vinification takes place in stainless steel, with fermentation in contact with the skins for approximately two weeks.
Ageing
The wine remains in stainless-steel tanks for several months before further maturation in bottle.

Vintage notes
The 2024 growing season was dry overall, with limited rainfall. Winter was cold and dry, while spring was mild but included occasional frosts in April and May. Summer was warmer and drier than average. Cooler conditions, marked day-to-night temperature differences and well-timed rain during the final ripening period supported balanced maturation.
