Production Area

> On the right bank of the Po river in the south of Lombardy region, extends a land of gently sloping hills characterized by extremely favourable climatic and geomorphological conditions for growing grapes.

> It has a temperate climate with high temperature range, dry in the winter and breezy in the summer.

> The soil is sedimentary with marl made up of equal parts of limestone and clay.

Production Process

> The grapes are hand-picked and destemmed. The must is left in contact with the skins for 24 hours at 5 °C. The cold maceration favors the extraction of color substances and the primary aromas of the grapes.

> The must is separated from the skins using soft pressing. The fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 18 °C.

> The base wine undergoes a second fermentation according to the Martinotti method, in cuve close at 14 °C with the addition of selected yeasts. The wine is left in contact with the lees and finally is filtered and bottled.

> Before being put on the market, it is left in the cellar until it re-establishes its balance which has been momentarily lost during the slightly stressing phase of the bottling.
