About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow on limestone soils in Pratola Peligna, a small town in the province of L'Aquila. They are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness.

Vinification

The grapes are pressed directly at the winery and go straight into spontaneous fermentation. This keeps anthocyanin extraction to a minimum and gives the juice its pink colour. The wine is made as a natural wine.

Ageing

The wine ages for six months in fiberglass tanks. It is then bottled without filtration, fining or added sulfur dioxide.
