About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are grown in Abruzzo.

Vinification

The bunches are harvested by hand and transported to the winery in small crates. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, with a 60-day maceration that develops the wine’s aromas.

Ageing

The wine matures for six months in concrete tanks, followed by 20 months in new French and Slavonian oak barrels. It then rests in bottle for six months before release.

Tasting profile

Elegant and refined, with aromas of dried fruit and a rich, full and generous palate.

Serving and pairing

Recommended with red meat dishes and cheeses.
