Vineyard and terroir
The fruit comes from the Baroni vineyards, where green harvesting and careful grape selection are practised.
Vinification
For the 2011 vintage, the grapes were hand-harvested in two stages between 10 and 30 September. After destemming, they underwent cold skin maceration for 3–4 days in stainless-steel tanks, followed by fermentation for 15–20 days.
Ageing
The wine rested for 14 months in tanks and small oak barrels.
Tasting profile
Elegant and fresh.
Label / history
In Arabic, “Ra'is” means “chief”, a term used for the head fisherman who oversaw the tuna catch. The 2011 vintage was bottled in July 2014.
