Vineyard and terroir
The grapes are grown organically in the commune of Monforte d'Alba, in the Pajana and Gris plots of the Ginestra cru. The vines average 20 years of age. The sites face east and southeast, and the soils consist of clay, sand and calcareous marl.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand and sorted in the vineyard. Fruit from each plot is vinified separately. After destemming, fermentation takes place with native yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks for 25–30 days.
Ageing
The wine matures for 24 months in 5,000-litre Stockinger oak casks, followed by eight months in neutral concrete tanks.
Tasting profile
The aroma is expressive. The palate is fruity, powerful and refined.
