In vineyard
A single-varietal Refosco, native Friulano grape variety characterised by a fairly late ripening period. The grapes are selected from the older vines on the estate, perfectly adapted to the territory, they have found a balance of quality through the small scale production that they yield. Every year, numerous green harvesting operations are carried out in order to maximise the sunlight on the bunches so that they can reach the required ripening levels.
In cellar
The grapes, harvested by hand and selected through qualitative sorting, are vinified with skin maceration that varies between 25 to 30 days to allow for optimum extraction of colour and tannins. The wine then matures in oak casks for 12 months and then in larger barrels for 6 months.
Tasting notes
