Towards the end of August, the grapes are harvested, the cellar follows a particular winemaking technique: half of the grapes are subjected to carbonic maceration, while the other half ferments on the skins for a short period at a controlled temperature. The wine ages in the bottle for approximately three months. The result is a wine with an accentuated aroma, which maintains a fair structure, always remaining pleasant and easy to taste.
