About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vines grow at 350 m above sea level on limestone soils in Emilia-Romagna and are trained using the Guyot system.

Vinification

The grapes are generally harvested in late September at optimal ripeness. Fermentation takes place with natural yeasts in stainless-steel tanks, with seven months of skin maceration. The wine is bottled without clarification or filtration, and may therefore develop a cloudy sediment over time.

Ageing

The wine rests on its lees in the same stainless-steel tanks for up to eight months.

Tasting profile

The aroma is rich. The palate has a delicate, lightly oily texture and a gentle tannic grip.

Serving and pairing

Decant for 30 minutes before serving.
