Production Details La Crena is in Agliano Terme, planted at an average density of 4,800 vines per hectare and Guyot trained. Alcoholic fermentation lasted about two weeks in open stainless-steel vats, with mechanical punch-downs, délestage and numerous open-air pump-overs. Post-fermentation skin maceration followed; the wine was then racked and transferred to barriques for malolactic fermentation. Maturation lasted approximately 18 months across barriques, larger casks and stainless steel.
Tasting Notes Ruby red; ripe, concentrated red blackberry and cherry fruit with spice; enveloping and full on the palate, with pronounced finishing acidity, verticality and elegance.
