Production Details Grapes were hand-picked into 16 kg crates, refrigerated to 12–14°C, destemmed and crushed, soft-pressed, and statically settled at 6–7°C. Clear juice fermented at 17–19°C for 5–7 days. The wine remained on primary lees, with weekly bâtonnage for five months and then bâtonnage every 14 days until completion at 11 months. Vines were espalier-trained with Guyot pruning. Reported grape yields were 60 quintals/ha at Ulmo and 70 quintals/ha at Maroccoli and Monte Cirami; these are grape-weight yields, not wine yield in hl/ha. The wine is identified as organic and SOStain-certified.
