Viticulture
Organic Viticulture has been employed in this vineyard after 2 years undergoing conversion into Biodynamic methods. Vines are trained in the Guyot system. The vineyard is manually harvested.
Vinification
Grapes are de-stemmed and gently crushed. Then transferred into the clay amphoras where indigenous yeasts are leading the fermentation process. Grapes are plunged into the juice gently and quickly in order to prevent the extraction of the stronger tannins. The maceration process usually last around twelve days, after which the skins are separated.
Food Match
Pair with a dish of rustic, smokey northern sausage, polenta and fresh fennel salad.
