About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from the La Querciolina vineyard.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand during the first two weeks of October. They undergo 15 days of maceration before gentle pressing.

Ageing

The wine matures for 12 months in French oak barrels, followed by 15 months in bottle in the winery’s cellar.
