About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie near the sea in the province of Trapani, on sandy clay soils. The maritime climate benefits the quality of the harvest and the wine’s flavour.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand at full ripeness. Pure grape spirit is added at the very end of fermentation.

Ageing

The wine rests for at least five years in Slavonian oak barrels.
