Description
Red wine obtained from 100% hand-picked Aglianico grapes, coming exclusively from the Barile area. After destemming, the must, in contact with the pomace, ferments with the aid of selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks for approximately 2 weeks at a controlled temperature. Once racking has been carried out, it is left to mature for approximately 6 months in oak tonneau, before a second passage in stainless steel for another 6 months. Once bottled, it continues its refinement for another 2 months.
