Production Technology: Traditional and manual cultivation. The perfectly healthy and ripe grapes are harvested late and after a careful selection, they are pressed and fermented in small tanks at a controlled temperature. After racking, the malolactic fermentation is favored and with the subsequent cold of winter the natural stabilization is obtained. This is followed by aging in small oak barrels for about 10 months. The bottling is usually carried out at the end of the summer just before the start of the vinification of the following year. The choice of vines, the cultivation and the care in the vinification ensure this wine abundant quantities of anthocyanins and noble beneficial polyphenols.

Gastronomic Pairings: Drunk young, it is a wine that is well suited to cooked vegetables, minestrone and well-seasoned pasta. In the following years it is a wine for roasts and even aged cheeses. It should be served at a temperature of 18-22° C in large crystal glasses.
