Production Notes

  • Grapes are hand-harvested during the early hours of the day with a double-selection
    process (first in the vineyard and then in the cellar).
  • Following destemming and soft pressing, alcoholic fermentation occurs in wooden, 225-litre barriques inside a controlled temperature refrigerated room.
  • The unfiltered wine elevates for 12 months in the same barrique on its lees (sediment).
  • After bottling, the wine ages five additional months in the cellar.
