Indicazione Geografica Protetta

rosso

Warm and full-bodied like the Sirocco that lashes the vines in spring and summer.

Vinification

The bunches are harvested into crates when they have reached full maturity. The destemmed and cooled grapes are transferred to the fermentation tanks where alcoholic fermentation takes place for 8-12 days at a temperature of 24/28°C by specific yeas ts. Frequent pumping over takes place during fermentation to increase the extraction of perfumes and colour. The wine obtained is then aged partly in steel tanks and partly in French oak barriques, followed by at least two months’ bottle-ageing.
