Interesting Facts
The grapes are hand-picked from 12 hectares in Valpolicella Valpantena, at 400 metres above sea level, with limestone and marl soil. After harvesting, the grapes are left to dry on wooden mats in a well-ventilated room for 4 months, losing a large percentage of water and concentrating the flavour. Fermentation, with strict temperature control, takes place partly in steel and partly in oak. The wine is aged for 3 years in large Slavonian oak barrels (25 hl).
