About this wine

Vinification

The Montepulciano grapes are harvested by hand and vinified using a completely natural approach.

Ageing

After fermentation, the wine spends 12 months in oak barrels, followed by another 48 months of maturation in bottle in the winery’s cellars. It is released only when considered ready, sometimes two or more years later than planned.

Tasting profile

Generous, elegant and balanced, with a rich, layered aroma and a full, mature palate.

Label / history

Production is limited to the finest vintages.
