Vinification

In 2022 the grapes were harvested between September 16 and 21.

The vinification lasted 42 days, with a partially submerged cap in recent years. Gentle punch-downs and remontage to wet the cap and extract only the most elegant tannins. Fermentation at free temperature (below

29°C), followed by malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks.

Tasting notes

Thanks to the slow maturation in large oak barrels, it is accompanied by an intense and complex aromatic profile and a dense and flavorful structure.

Food and wine pairing

It is an elegant wine that accompanies refined cuisine with traditional products such as stuffed capon, guinea fowl, roasted rabbit.
