Description

History

Duemani is a renowned Tuscan winery specializing in elegant wines produced according to the principles of biodynamic agriculture. Located in Riparbella, near the Tuscan coast, the winery cultivates international vines such as Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Merlot in clayey soils with pebbles. Fermentation and aging take place in terracotta amphorae, cement vats and French oak barrels. The resulting wines are enveloping, expressive and perfectly represent the personality of the Tuscan coast. The “Duemani” (Cabernet Franc) and the “Suisassi” (Syrah) are the flagships of the cellar.

Grapes used

Cabernet Franc 100%

Production method

The vineyards are located at an altitude between 220 and 250 meters, cultivated with the Guyot training system. The density of the vines is 8400 per hectare, with an average age of 19 years. Each plant produces about 1 kg of grapes. The soils are mainly clayey and rich in limestone.

The harvest takes place in the first ten days of September, with selection of the grapes directly in the vineyard and manual harvesting in small boxes. The vintage produced high quality, balanced and juicy grapes. Fermentation takes place in cement vats at a controlled temperature, with a short maceration on the skins for 15 days. After racking, the wine continues its maturation in concrete vats.

The wine is not subjected to clarification or filtration, thus preserving its integrity and character.
