About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the Serrs Ozzanos mountain vineyard in the countryside around Monti, at 500–600 metres above sea level. The vines grow in sandy, granitic soils. Together with favourable temperatures, these conditions contribute to the grapes’ intense character and the wine’s balanced flavour and lasting finish.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand into small crates. Vinification involves extended maceration and fermentation at a controlled temperature.

Ageing

The wine matures for 12–18 months in 1,000-litre oak barrels.

Tasting profile

Intense in character, with a balanced flavour and a lasting finish.

Label / history

“Serranu” literally means “mountain”, referring to the mountain vineyard where the grapes are grown.
