About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The organically grown fruit comes from the estate’s vineyards in Olivola, in the Genza Valley, and is harvested entirely by hand at optimal ripeness.

Vinification

Spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts takes place without temperature control, with 15 days of maceration.

Ageing

The wine ages for 18 months, followed by a further year of maturation in bottle.

Tasting profile

Lively in character, with a pronounced mineral quality.
