About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The Merlot grows on rocky, limestone-soiled slopes and is sourced from several plots.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested both by hand and mechanically. They are destemmed and pressed, followed by 12 days of skin maceration and fermentation at a controlled 22 °C.
Ageing
The wine matures in stainless-steel tanks for several months.
Label / history
The Pallavicini family has a long involvement in Italian public life and winemaking. One branch settled between Parma, Piacenza and Cremona, while another established itself in Genoa and entered government and diplomatic affairs. Members of the Genoese branch later moved to Rome, including Nicola Pallavicini, who was born in 1607. The family owns land in the province of Rome, Tuscany and other parts of Italy.
