About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow near the extinct volcano Monte Vulture in Basilicata.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully transported in crates to keep the berries intact. Fermentation lasts 10 days in stainless-steel vats at a controlled 25 °C.

Ageing

The wine matures for 12 months in 500 L oak barrels, followed by three months in bottle.
