From the vinification of 100% pure Sangiovese grapes. The origin is the classic one of Tuscany. For the vinification after the harvest is that it is carried out by hand in boxes of 10 kg and, after a night’s passage in the refrigerator cell at 5 turns C, the grapes are destemmed and the berries selected through an optical viewer that discards the unwanted products. The must thus obtained is destined for vinification in amphora, where during fermentation are carried out 5-6 manual fillings per day until the complete transformation of sugars into alcohol. At the end of this phase, the amphorae are filled with wine of the same type and closed with a steel lid. The wine inside will thus remain in contact with the skins for at least 12 months. During this period, the interaction between terracotta, wine and skins allow a characteristic aging that makes this wine a unique product.
