ALCOHOL : % vol.

GRAPES : Sangiovese 100%

ALLERGENS : Contains sulphites

PRODUCTION AREA : San Gimignano, Tuscany

NATURE OF THE SOIL : Medium textured hilly terrain

VINIFICATION : The grapes are destemmed and lightly crushed, after which the must is collected in concrete vats. Fermentation then begins, taking place at around 25°C. After about 14 days, the wine is racked to separate the heavier lees. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation follows.

MATURATION : It is then transferred to medium-toasted French oak barrels and left on its fine lees. It will remain there for 12 months and will be stirred with batonnage twice a week to give the wine smoothness and stability.
