Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

Fruit comes from the Pratone, Barek, Brolo, Palo and Nespoli crus. The vineyards are exposed to air currents generated by heat exchange between the plain and Lake Iseo. The vines average 18 years of age.

Grapes

The blend includes around 20% reserve wines.

Vinification

The grapes are hand-harvested into small crates, sorted at the winery and gently pressed. Only the first-press juice is used, amounting to 48% of the total volume. Each plot is vinified separately. The first fermentation takes place between September and February in stainless-steel tanks and 250-litre oak barrels, followed by a second fermentation in bottle.

Ageing

The wine spends at least 36 months on the lees.

Tasting profile

Harmonious and elegant, with a long finish and a broad range of aromas and flavours.

Label / history

Created in 1985 after extensive research and the selection of fruit from several Monte Rossa crus.
