Vinification
The production method is similar to that used for Amarone. About 50% of the harvested grapes are placed in small crates to dry, while the remainder stay on the vines for a further week. During drying, the grapes become more concentrated in sugar, malic acid is converted into succinic acid, and distinctive flavours develop. Vinification includes an 8–10-day fermentation, maceration and malolactic fermentation.
Ageing
The wine matures for 18 months in new and second-use oak barrels.
Tasting profile
The aroma is powerful.
