About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the 13.4-hectare Molsino vineyard, at 350–420 m above sea level.

Vinification

After harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and crushed. The must ferments partly in oak vats and partly in cement vats, followed by malolactic fermentation in cement tanks.

Ageing

The wine matures for four years in 10–20 hl barrels, rests briefly in a cement tank, and then ages for a further 6–12 months in bottle before release.
