About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from vineyards near the village of Monleale, planted on limestone and clay soils.

Grapes

The wine is made from selected Barbera grapes.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested entirely by hand and sorted at the winery. Fermentation takes place with natural yeasts at a controlled temperature.

Ageing

The wine matures for 24 months in old barriques, followed by at least 12 months in bottle in the winery’s cellars.
