Production Details Espalier-trained, spur-pruned vines planted at 4,500 vines/ha. The English sheet then prints 64 ql/ha on a second line also labelled 'Vines per ha'; because that label is internally inconsistent and the Italian counterpart was inaccessible, the figure is not normalized as vineyard yield. Traditional red fermentation with maceration took place at 25–30°C for 6 days. The wine matured for 12 months in 25 hL oak casks. Total extract was 26.8 g/L.
Tasting Notes Orange peel, cherries and dried flowers; medium body, fine tannins and a refined, subtle finish
