    Vinification, winemaker's own words

    Soils:
    Clay
    Terroir:
    North and South facing sides of the hill, 250 meters above sea level.
    Harvest:
    Picked by hand
    Fermentation:
    Steel (100%)
    Storage:

    Winemaker:
    Ilaria

    The two blend wines are vinified separately and blended at bottling, based on each vintage's characteristics. For each of the wines, the grapes are destemmed and crushed, then pushed into the fermentation tank, where they naturally start fermenting thanks to indigenous yeasts. After 5-10 days of contact with the grape skins in the tank, the fermenting juice is separated from the skins and poured into another tank. The pomace is spread in the vineyards for compost. After fermentation is completed. the wine ages in stainless steel for at least twelve month. After blending and bottling, it ages in the bottle. There is a minimal addition of sulphites during the process.
