Sigle variety wine making with 100% Schiava grapes. The plants are cultivated on soils rich of limestone, in a zone touched by the Mediterranean climate that, with warm days and fresh nights, give to the fruits their perfect habitat. 6 days maceration in contact with skins, followed by a slow fermentation in steel at controlled temperature. The aging is managed in steel, while the maturation is developed in oak barrels.
