About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the single vineyard Vigna delle Oche in Marche, an organic and biodynamically farmed site at 380 m above sea level. Its soils combine sand, clay and limestone, and the vines were planted in 1945. Only one or two bunches are selected by hand from each vine.

Vinification

Produced only in selected years, the wine undergoes a long fermentation with natural yeasts in concrete and stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

It matures for 140 months in stainless-steel and concrete vats. The wine is bottled without filtration and then rests in the winery’s cellars for at least 12 months.
