About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are grown in a vineyard near the commune of Ghemme. Chemical use in the vineyard is kept to a minimum.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand at the end of September and transported to the winery in boxes to preserve their integrity. After gentle pressing, the must undergoes maceration before alcoholic fermentation at low temperatures.

Ageing

The wine matures for 10 months in stainless-steel tanks, followed by one month in bottle.
