Spontaneous fermentation in 2 open 500 litre tubs, with grape skins, until fermentation ended (14 days). Subsequent racking, without pressing, into new chestnut barrels with a capacity of 650 litres. Aged on its lees for 12 months in chestnut barrels.

Visually, a top layer of attractive amber colour, clean and bright. On the nose, aromas of candied citrus fruits, dried apricots, fig jam appear with subtle notes of coal and balsamic hints typical of the variety. It ends with touches of honey, reminiscent of the wine passing through the barrel. Smooth entry in the mouth, with a medium wine body and freshness typical of the variety. The notes of compote and ripe fruit that are perceived in the nasal phase are confirmed. Good aftertaste that invites you to repeat.
