About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from vineyards on the island of Sant'Antioco, close to the sea. The approximately 70-year-old vines grow in sandy soils.

Vinification

After harvest, the grapes undergo cold skin maceration, followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine matures in barriques for 12 months and then rests in bottle for a further 12 months.

Tasting profile

Elegant.
