About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow in a biodynamically farmed estate vineyard in the municipality of Monteveglio.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested entirely by hand at full ripeness and placed in small boxes. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in large Allier oak barrels. The wine is bottled without fining or filtration.

Ageing

The wine rests on its lees for nine months in large Allier oak barrels, with regular bâtonnage, followed by at least six months in bottle before release.

Tasting profile

Smooth and intense, with a fresh character.
