Production Details The vendor describes six months on the skins in amphora, followed by filtration and maturation in small French-oak barrels; its compact maturation entry reads '6/12 months amphora/barrique' without clearly allocating the two figures. Importer-hosted reviews conflict on the whole-cluster share: James Suckling reports 30%, Wine Advocate says up to 20% depending on vintage, and Jeb Dunnuck reports 40%. They also conflict on filtration: the vendor says filtered, while Jeb Dunnuck says bottled without filtration. Wine Advocate states that malolactic fermentation finishes in Manetti clay vessels and the wine is removed from them in March following harvest. Dry extract is listed as 29.79 g/L and serving temperature as 18–20°C.
Food Pairing Grilled foods, dark meats, dark poultry, medium-aged cheese, pizza or pasta bakes, risotto, and mildly flavored game
