About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie in Altavilla Irpinia, Tufo and Chianche, at 400–500 m above sea level. The vines are 35–60 years old and grow in marl and clay soils.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested in the middle third of October and gently pressed. The must is chilled and settled before fermentation in stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine remains in stainless-steel tanks for about four months before bottling.
