About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are grown in Appiano at 400 m above sea level. The vineyards occupy gentle, south- and south-west-facing slopes with loamy, sandy soils covered by fine gravel.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested in mid-September. They undergo maceration and fermentation in stainless-steel tanks for 15 days at 28 °C, followed by malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

The wine matures for six months in 60 hl oak barrels, followed by two months in bottle before release.

Tasting profile

Stylish and elegant.
