2021
A unique interpretation of Cabernet Franc, born only when nature offers its perfect balance.
100% Cabernet Franc
Second week of September, selection in the vineyard and on the sorting table, destemming and crushing of the grapes.
Fermentation in an open-top truncated conical wooden vat by native yeasts. The process lasted two weeks, with only punch-downs and sealed pump-overs performed.
18 months in 500L barrels.
Soil
Calcareous soil from which the wines' broad taste derives, great mineral complexity that translates into tasting freshness.
Production Area
We are in the northern area of the Bolgheri DOC appellation, near the village of Bolgheri.
Density Plantation
Medium-density vineyards, with 6,000 plants per hectare.
Yeld
65 quintals of grapes.
An exceptional vintage, characterized by a high concentration, but where the harmony was yet maintained. The hot and dry summer, together with the constant ventilation from the sea, helped the slightly early ripening. Yields per hectare were low, as well as the wine yields because the grapes had a particularly thick peel.
