Details of the location

The vineyards are situated in south-eastern locations at an altitude of 300 to 450 meters above sea level. The soil consists of loamy limestone gravel, which retains heat and is well-drained.

From grape to wine

After harvesting the ripe and healthy grapes, the grapes are destemmed, followed by pressing and natural must clarification. Fermentation then takes place at a controlled temperature of 18 °C, followed by 3 months of ageing on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks.
