Testing notes
This wine is exclusively produced only in the best vintages, picked in the homonymous vineyard, which is one of the oldest and most favorably located vineyards of “Villa Matilde”.
The bunches, hand-selected one by one, are gently crushed to obtain the must; it ferments , together with the dregs of pressed grapes, for 20 / 25 days, at a temperature of about 25° C.
Maturation:
after the malolactic fermentation, wine matures in “Allier” oak barriques for 12 months ( 1/ 3 new, 1 /3 of second passage, 1 / 3 of third passage ); then, there is the bottle-aging, that lasts another 12 / 18 months.
