Production technique:
The best grapes are harvested late, rested on racks and drowned in a dry and well-ventilated environment until January. The pressing is done in the dry period of February, with maceration and fermentation called "a cappello", submerged for about one month at a temperature of 43-59°F. Then it is pulled and left to complete the lactic fermentation. In the following months, it is transferred to medium and small capacity barrels. Could be sold only after three years of aging.

Bottling:

It accompanies meat dishes, especially red. It is particularly exhilarated if it is accompanied by skewers and games. Serve at a temperature of 64°F, previously poured into a decanter.
