About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Pinot Noir and Merlot grow in a southwest-facing vineyard on soils rich in Eocene granite and sandstone.

Vinification

The grapes ferment for one month at 25 °C, followed by maceration in large oak barrels.

Ageing

The wine ages for 18 months in small, used oak barrels.

Label / history

Following a family tradition, Silvio Jermann named Red Angel after his eldest son, Angelo. The first vintage was released in 1988.
