From a single vineyard in the Le Coste di Monforte MGA. The vineyard is 45 years old, stands at an altitude of 440 metres and faces south-east. The soil is of medium texture with whitish marls.  The skins remain in contact with the wine during post-fermentation maceration, using the ancient submerged cap method, for a further 5 weeks. After racking, the wine remains in stainless steel for malolactic fermentation and is then racked into barrels for 36 months in 25 hl oak casks and 12 months in cement tanks

Focused aromas of dark fruits and hints of spice and bacon. Then turns to incense. Full-bodied, with polished and velvety tannins with hints of vanilla bean and delicious fruit. Fascinating character. Complex and beautiful. A joy to taste.
