The most prevalent grapes varieties are red, namely sangiovese, canaiolo, ciliegiolo and colorino. Trebbiano, petit verdot and cabernet franc are grown as well. We do not use chemicals, pesticides or artificial fertilizers in our vineyards. Soil management comprises of grooving and row extirpation in harmony with nature. In our cellars, most of the activities are carried out manually. We do not add any yeast, we do not use temperature control/wine filtration systems for fermentation and we do not use electrical pumps for bottling. During vinification, grapes are put into stainless steel tanks placed in our underground cellars. Aging lasts for 24-36 moths, out of which 12-24 in 5/10hl oak barrels and at least 12 months in bottles in an underground warehouse, at natural temperature.
