About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Pignoletto grapes grow in an estate biodynamic vineyard in the municipality of Monteveglio.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested entirely by hand at full ripeness and placed in small crates. Fermentation starts spontaneously in large Allier oak barrels. The wine is bottled without fining or filtration.

Ageing

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

Tasting profile

Soft and medium-bodied, with an intense, fresh character.
