Vineyard and terroir
Ramusa comes from Pinot Nero grown in the hills of Tenuta Ficuzza at Piana degli Albanesi, 700 m above sea level. The vineyards have a north-eastern exposure, a planting density of 5,000 vines per hectare and a yield of 60 hl/ha. The estate lies within the Ficuzza woodland; preserved woodland and Mediterranean scrub divide its vineyards into a mosaic. Strong day-to-night temperature variations help the Pinot Nero develop complex, elegant aromas.

Vinification
The grapes are harvested manually into cases during the first half of September. They are destemmed and undergo 24 hours of cold maceration. The juice is then racked and fermented at controlled temperature.
