We harvest all varieties at once from the vineyard over 70 years old. Observing Sangiovese, which account for about 70% of the vineyard, we wait until its phenolic maturation in the second part of September which guarantees a higher structure and longevity of the wine.
Vinification occurs in small open 10Hl containers, with manual punch down of the cap multiple times a day to extract all the aromas of the grape varieties. The fermentation goes on the skins and lasts about 20-30 days with the naturally present yeasts. The malolactic fermentation takes in oak barriques that are 2°, 3° and 4° passage.
he wine matures for about 18 months until bottling, where it continues refining.
Just feel its intriguing aroma of dark plums, blackberry, prune, pot-pourri, tobacco, undergrowth, cloves, earthy and balsamic nuances. This is what we call wine meditation.
