Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the estate’s oldest vineyards.

Vinification

The bunches are harvested by hand and placed in small crates to keep them fresh and intact during transport to the winery. After gentle pressing, the must undergoes a short, low-temperature pre-fermentation stage in temperature-controlled stainless-steel and cement tanks. Fermentation lasts about three weeks, with pump-overs, punch-downs and délestage. Malolactic fermentation follows.

Ageing

The 2020 vintage matured for 24 months in French and Slavonian barrels, followed by 12 months in cement tanks and eight months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Refined and layered, with deep aromas, a velvety texture, roundness and complexity. The oak notes are subtle, and the aromas and flavours become integrated as the wine opens.

Label / history

Bottled without filtration in early 2025. Production totalled 15,000 bottles.
