VAT included

Autochthonous vine of Trentino Alto Adige, it has been cultivated in the Dolomite mountains since the fifteenth century where it has adapted perfectly. Over the centuries this vine has given rise to two different biotypes due to the different shape and size of the bunch: short bunch Lagrein and long bunch Lagrein. From the selection of the best short-cluster Lagrein vineyards grown along the Adige river valley, we produce this rich and powerful red. The Lagrein vineyards are grown on the hills at an altitude of 200-400m along the Adige river valley using only simple pergolas: this guarantees excellent exposure of the bunches to the sun, guaranteeing excellent aromatic and polyphenolic ripening without the risk of burning the grapes. When the grapes reach perfect ripeness, they are harvested and selected by hand around the second week of October. The grapes are vinified according to the classic red winemaking technique, at a temperature of 26°C for 12-13 days with the addition of selected yeasts. Maturation in wood follows for 10 months in French oak barriques with 3-year aging and light toasting. Finally, another 12 months of aging between steel and bottle are required.

Description

The production area of Pinot Grigio Musivum Vicinia is in the municipality of Mezzocorona. The area was first cultivated with vines in the 1950s. The soils therefore have a limited cultivation area and a rather superficial aquifer between 50 and 100 cm, and the type of soil is silty. They have a sufficient water supply even in periods of drought and good fertility, essential characteristics for Pinot Grigio, a rather weak variety. Furthermore, the Vicinia is a very precocious area, being leaning against imposing rocky walls that guarantee protection from cold winds in the periods of late winter and early spring and have a heating effect during all the vegetative phases, reflecting the heat of the sun. it starts with a slightly delayed harvest to enhance the varietal characteristics and aromatic richness. The grapes are harvested manually in the early hours of the day to preserve their freshness thanks to the low temperature, with the selection of each single bunch in the field; they are then transported to the cellar in perforated containers to best guarantee the fragrance and integrity of the bunches. In the cellar the grapes are softly pressed to obtain a free-run must which is followed by a natural decantation. Fermentation takes place with selected yeasts at a controlled temperature of 18 ° C in the special stainless steel tanks specially designed for Musivum . 50 %del volume completes the last third of the fermentation in the barrel room, in second passage oak barrels of 50 hl, where it also remains for the refinement phase. The other half, on the other hand, last the fermentation in steel, where it continues with the refinement phase on the yeasts.During refinement the fine lees consisting mainly of yeasts are put back in suspension every 15 days for the first 3 months and every 2 months thereafter. , until the moment of re-assembly of the two portions, or the partially fermented and aged fraction in wood with that fermented and aged in steel
