A thinning of the less mature bunches with health problems was carried out during the harvest, after which a mechanical harvest was carried out optimizing the management of the processing times of the grapes. Upon arrival in the cellar, the grapes were destemmed, pressed and cooled to a temperature of 18 ºC.
Fermentation with inoculum of selected yeasts in a steel ferment equipped with automated cooling and pumping over. The pumping over began after having reached a percentage in alcohol such as to extract a good amount of tannins, so that these, binding to the coloring substance, stabilized over time. The alcoholic fermentation lasted about 8-10 days. After separation from the skins, the wine conducted malolactic fermentation in steel at controlled temperature.
The 2021 vintage is scarcer in quantity than the average, as widely expected. The initial dry period, the September rains, which accompanied the grapes, in particular the red ones, in the last two weeks before the harvest, bringing back balance in beans that are not very generous in terms of yield, but very rich in content. The harvest was slightly anticipated by about 6-7 days compared to the last years. Health status of the grapes entered the cellar always very good.
Intense and luminous ruby red. Scents of red fruit with pulp, currant jam and violet. A full-bodied, soft wine with an excellent drink helped by a vigorous freshness. We recommend consumption at 18 degrees with an early opening of the bottle before consumption. Wine that endures aging for 4-5 years. Pairing with structured pasta dishes and pork and game.
