About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The vineyards lie at 100 m a.s.l. on loose soil. Vines are trained to spurred cordon at a density of 6,000 plants per hectare, and the yield is 60 q/ha.
Grapes
Frappato.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested in the first week of October. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, and malolactic fermentation is completed.
Ageing
The wine matures for 10 months in barriques, divided equally between new and second-use barrels, followed by eight months in bottle.
Tasting profile
