Production
Harvest is severely hand-made, after an accurate ripeness study through analysis and repeated samples. Carrying it to the cellar at the most appropriate time represents the first and fundamental step to lead spontaneous fermentations aimed at best enhance our wines characteristics and typicality.
Red grapes are processed in temperature-controlled (28-30°) tanks through repeated pumping-over and delestage (emptying) in fermentation first phases and then decrease when racking approaches, normally between 15 and 30 days.
The following maturation, both in wood and bottle, takes place in the underground cellar at natural temperature and humidity.

EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
Italian extra-virgin olive oil obtained from cultivars: frantoio, moraiolo, leccino and pendolino.
Olives are hand-picked from mid-October and rapidly cold-pressed after defoliation and washing.
It is a compound oil, rich of those flavors recalling green olive, artichoke, thistle and an officinal note of freshly picked aromatic herbs.
The taste starts balancing slightly sweet, and then favors a faintly hot harmonic end, integrated by a lightweight bitter note, making it the ideal match for any food.
A truly versatile oil, it is excellent for raw vegetable dressing, bruschette (grilled bread rubbed with garlic and topped with tomatoes, olive oil, salt and pepper) , soups or potages and finally accompanying red meats.
