Questo vino
Vinification
Slightly overripe grapes are carefully selected and destemmed. The must ferments in stainless-steel tanks at a continuously controlled low temperature, followed by malolactic fermentation.
Ageing
The wine matures for at least 24 months in French oak barrels, followed by a further six months in bottle. Several years of bottle age bring greater roundness and a distinctive, intriguing flavour.
Tasting profile
Firm rather than soft, the wine becomes rounder with bottle age.
Label / history
The name Tazzelenghe means “tongue cutter”.
