About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The selected fruit comes from vineyards in Terlano at 300–400 metres above sea level.

Grapes

The grapes are selected before vinification.

Vinification

Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature, with half of the must in stainless-steel tanks and half in 500-litre oak tonneaux. The wine subsequently undergoes malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

The wine spends 10 months on the lees.

Tasting profile

The 2009 vintage combines intense aromas and flavours with a notably weightless feel. Mineral, peach, mango and tropical-fruit notes are complemented by floral touches.
