About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The vineyard lies in Scansano, in the province of Grosseto, at 350 metres above sea level, on clay-limestone soils.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand in mid-September and carefully sorted. After gentle pressing, the individual varieties are fermented separately in large stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 28–30 °C.
Ageing
The wine matures for eight months in untoasted French oak barriques. The varietal wines are then blended and bottled, followed by several more months of bottle ageing in the cellars of Castello di Montepo.
