About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the producer’s vineyards in Langhe, at elevations of 370–400 m. The vines are 15 years old and grow in clay-limestone soils.

Grapes

The wine is made from selected grapes.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand in mid-September at optimal ripeness. They are destemmed and pressed, followed by fermentation in stainless-steel tanks at 25 °C with four to five days of skin contact. The wine then undergoes malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

The wine matures for six months in stainless-steel tanks.

Tasting profile

Elegant.
