About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the biodynamically farmed Ca' Etta vineyard, where the vines are more than 50 years old.

Vinification

Selected grapes are harvested by hand and fermented spontaneously with natural yeasts in large oak casks. Malolactic fermentation follows, and the wine is bottled without filtration.

Ageing

The wine spends 18–30 months in Austrian and German oak casks, followed by at least 12 months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Rich, aromatic and full-bodied.
