About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The grapes come from an organic vineyard in the Oriolo dei Fichi area near Faenza, about 150 metres above sea level. The soils are clay and limestone, and the vines average 36 years of age.
Vinification

Ageing
The wine ages on its fine lees in concrete tanks for 16 months, followed by at least three months in bottle in the winery’s cellars.
