About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie east of Lake Garda, where the local climate and terrain allow each grape variety to show its full potential. The vines grow at 220–300 m above sea level in soils rich in limestone and marl.

Vinification

The wine is made by the ripasso method: it undergoes a second fermentation in oak barrels with the grape-skin pomace left after Amarone production.

Ageing

Aged for 24 months in French oak barrels.

Tasting profile

Elegant.
