Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the “Alto” vineyard in San Lorenzo, a sloping site with predominantly clay soils and abundant rock fragments. The soils provide good drainage and contribute to aromatic intensity and concentration. The Guyot-trained vines are 14 years old on average and planted at a density of 6,000 vines per hectare.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness to maintain the balance between sugar and acidity.

Ageing

The wine matures for around 12 months in barrels, including 20% new French barriques, followed by at least 10 months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Warm, deep and concentrated, with intense aromas, texture and balance.
