Harvest

Winemaking

After rigorous selection, the clusters are
subjected to a natural drying process on
mats, until January-February of the following
year. They are then de-stemmed and pressed,
and the must is transferred to sealed, 100 lt
aok casks containing the “mother”, a thick
substance remaining from previous vintages.

Aging

After 7 years in the “vinsantaia” loft area,
the wine is bottle aged for a minimum of 6
months.

Appearance

Golden yellow, with coppery highlights.
