About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit grows on the eastern slopes of Montalcino, in clay-limestone soils and a mild climate.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand and undergo natural fermentation in open oak vats for 20–25 days, with active and passive extraction used alternately.

Ageing

The wine matures for 42 months: 24 months in large barrels followed by 18 months in cement vats.

Tasting profile

Rich, complex and refined, with deep aromas and a balanced structure. The wine is harmonious and expressive.

Vintage notes

The 2019 growing season was calm and even.
