Vinification
This wine is produced from vineyards averaging 25 years old, lying at 200, 300, and 400 meters above sea level, with various expositions. The soil is poor and rocky, mainly composed of clay and limestone. The production area is located in Castelnuovo dell'Abate, facing the Val d’Orcia. The harvest is performed manually, and the grapes' selection follows the same rigour adopted for Brunello. Vinification is in oak vats, with spontaneous fermentations with indigenous yeasts and extended macerations. This wine aged 22 months in 30 hl oak casks and was bottled in February 2023.
