Langhe Freisa D.O.C.

100% Freisa.

The grapes come from the vineyards planted during the last ten years, enjoying different positions (East, West and South-West) and situated at an altitude of about 400 metres above see level. Plantation arrangement: 5,500 vines per Ha.

Hills characterised by medium-high slopes.
Nature of the soil: clayey/calcareous.

Harvest occurs during the second half of September when the grapes begin to fade. The grapes are hand picked into small baskets. The vinification is in red and characterised by must pumpings over the grape dregs and traditional manual wine crushings. Maceration on the skins is for a few days, but the fermentation can last many weeks at a controlled temperature. Then, thanks to the yeasts, the malolactic fermentation occurs.

Refining occurs for at least one year in tonneaux of Frech oak. During this period the
wine undergoes a series of mixing phases to facilitate the natural refining of the wine.

Intense ruby red with hints of garnet.

Intense and fruity, with notes of cherry and red fruits.

Persistent elegant and velvety sensations to the mouth. Taste is full and well tructured, with a perfect balance of tannins. The alcohol content and the balanced acidity give this wine its own typical personality.
