| In the vineyard | The vines grow on soils composed mainly by white clay, very rich in minerals. During the pre-flowering processes the peeling is done at the bunches level to let the sun penetrate and perfectly ripen each single grape. The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness in the coolest hours of the day. |

| In the cellar | The grapes andthemust, afterdestemming, are cooledandkept at a temperature of 5 °C. The cryomaceration process lasts on average 24 hours and is done to extract the fruity aromas that normally remain on the grape skin; this also helps to achieve greater body. A soft pressing follows to extract just theflour must, the fermentation occurs in steel tanks with controlled temperature. The wine refines on the lees, enriching its aromatic content, and the sensations of balance and softness. |
