Vineyard: Ancient vineyards of lower Sulcis still ungrafted (Latin vineyard) Winemaking\/Maturation: Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for about 15 days, during which the maceration of the grape skins allows for a complete diffusion of the polyphenolic substances contained in the skins into the must. Early malolactic fermentation allows the wine to move into barriques as early as the beginning of December. Maturation in new fine-grained French oak barriques continues for a maximum of 16-18 months, after which the wine has acquired complexity, style, and longevity. A wine with a rich and complex profile, ideal for pairing with meat dishes and aged cheeses.
