Provincia di Pavia, Rosso
From clay, sand and silty soils, the grapes are hand-harvested from three plots (Uva Rara - 1.55ha, Croatina - 2.11ha, and Barbera - 1.8ha, Merlot - 0.3ha) and are selected 1 month before harvest. Each varietal is harvested and vineyard sorted separately: September 20th (Merlot), September 30th (Uva Rara), October 15th (Barbera) and October 20th (Croatina). The grapes spend 15 days macerating in steel tanks with ambient yeasts followed by fermentation that takes place over 15 days in temperature controlled steel tanks. Aged for five months in steel tanks. Unfined & unfiltered.
