The hand-picked grapes from the Pianella and / or Loreto Aprutino vineyards are placed in small boxes and transported to the cellar. The crushing and pressing is carried out with the aid of a small crusher-destemmer and an ancient press. The must obtained is transferred partly in terracotta amphorae and partly in used French oak tonneaux. To start the fermentation, the “pied de cuve” of indigenous yeasts previously obtained from the same grapes is added. Fermentation normally takes place in 7/10 days and the wine obtained is decanted and aged on its noble lees in 15hl Slavonian oak barrels and in terracotta amphorae. The refinement lasts about 2 years, after which the wine is decanted and bottled without filtration.

This Abruzzese native has the solid roots of the sage, the obstinate character of the winemaker, the body of the dreamer, flexible like the vine, from the Latin viere which means precisely to bend. Jasmine and honey will smile at your delicate soul. Sage and citrus will converse with your restless spirit.
