The vineyard
The vineyards are located in a mountainous environment at altitudes ranging from 800 to 1,230 meters above sea level. Surrounded by forests and medieval ruins, the vines benefit from a mountain climate that promotes slow ripening and preserves the natural freshness of the grapes.
Winemaking
Harvesting is done manually in small ten-kilogram boxes. Fermentation takes place using indigenous yeasts in historical 12th-century stone vats, followed by 24 months of aging in 225-liter French oak barrels.
