About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The estate’s vineyards extend from north to south across approximately 9 hectares and are planted on sandy soils. The vines undergo periodic selection, and 1 hectare is reserved for experimental winemaking.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand using traditional methods in the first week of September. They are gently pressed, then fermented for 15 days in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine matures for 10 months in 500-litre tonneaux, followed by approximately 12 months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Fresh and refined.

Label / history

The Ceralti estate has belonged to the historic Italian Ritili family for several generations. It is now run by Walter and his son Jacopo.
