About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from vineyards in Puglia with silty clay and calcareous marl soils. The grapes are harvested by hand relatively late, after the bunches have dried naturally on the vine.

Vinification

The grapes are destemmed and crushed, followed by 20 days of skin maceration. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature with selected yeasts. The wine undergoes numerous analytical checks during production and is bottled under cold, sterile conditions.

Ageing

The wine rests in large oak barrels.
