About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the producer’s vineyards in Langhe.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness. Gentle extraction during skin maceration preserves juicy fruit aromas and freshness. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature.

Ageing

The wine matures in steel tanks and amphorae.

Tasting profile

Juicy fruit aromas are accompanied by freshness.

Label / history

In Piedmontese dialect, “Capisme-e” means “understand me.” The idea arose after Domenico Clerico underwent major surgery in 2008 and subsequently struggled to speak. The wine was first released in 2009.
