Calcareous with clay loam texture

Harvest

Harvest takes place at full maturity in the third ten days of September through selection and mechanical harvesting.

Vinification

The grapes undergo a very soft pressing, and the resulting most is fermented in temperature controlled stainless- steel tanks of about 15°-18°C, in order to allow the product to retain its fragrances. After the first removal of the lees the wine is decanted at a low temperature; it is bottled only three months later and then aged for at least sixty days. Ageing takes places first in stainless – steel tanks, then for at least three months in cement vats and finally for at least another three months in the bottle.
