About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from selected Montepulciano vines in the “Capomandra” vineyard.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand and undergo a long maceration on the skins in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine rests for 18 months in stainless-steel tanks, followed by 18 months in barrels of French oak (80%) and American oak (20%). Half of the barrels are new and half are second-use. Before release, it ages for a further 12 months in bottle in the cellars of the Agriverde estate.

Tasting profile

Generous, rich and enjoyable.
