Vintage

The summer was mild, without excessively high temperatures and there was no rainfall during the months of July and August, however, the vineyard was able to vegetate very well thanks to its water reserves. At the end of September, night temperatures dropped considerably, increasing the thermal amplitude, which helped to advance the phenolic and alcoholic ripening of the grapes. 2021 has been a shorter vintage in production due to the effects of the storm ?Filomena? and the summer drought. We are talking about a vintage with a great balance between maturity and alcoholic strength and thanks to the work carried out in the field (early thinning ...) a correct phenological maturity has been reached and damage due to rot and powdery mildew has been avoided.

Winemaking

Grapes are hand harvested in 12 kg cases and carefully classified at the sorting table, then a low-revolution destemmer is employed, grapes are consequently transferred to the fermentation tanks by means of gravity. A cold maceration is carried out at a low temperature (8oC) for a period of 3-5 days which is followed by the alcoholic fermentation, lasting between 9 and 12 days at controlled temperatures (20-24°C). Finally, the wine undergoes a long maceration of the solids for 7-10 days.
