Vineyard

This can be described as a traditional Barolo, as it observes the custom of blending wines obtained from different vineyards. It is the product of synergic union of four winegrowing areas which are very different in terms of altitude, soil and exposure: this forms its strong point, its uniqueness. Every single wine reaches its peak in the bottle, after the perfect merger created by the blend, which is never the same from one year to the next.

Vinification

Each lot was vinified separately. After destemming and light crushing, must is "sealed" with CO2 for gentle warm maceration of approximately a day. Alcoholic fermentation begins about 24-36 hours later from native wild yeasts only.
Alcoholic Fermentation: 28 days in steel
Maceration: Gentle maceration in upright open-top steel tanks for the first 7-8 days of the alcoholic fermentation
Malolactic Fermentation: Immediately after alcoholic fermentation in French oak casks with a capacity of 500l (tonneaux), of which 25% were of new wood.
Ageing: 24 months in French oak tonneaux of 500l(the same as used for the malolactic fermentation), followed by 20 months in bottle.
