Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand in October with a careful selection of the grapes. At harvest the grapes are partially dried or "appassite". The yield is 8 tonnes/ha. The wine is fermented on the skins at a temperature of 30º C, with frequent pumping over for optimal extraction. It is then macerated for more than 40 days in 150 hl barrels, using the traditional overhead trellis system "pergola" of the Abruzzo region and vertical trellis system. Afterwards, the wine matures on its lees for 12 months in oak barrels, followed by a period of 6 months in inox vats and 12 months in bottle.
