Tasting notes

The nose reveals intense aromas of Morello and black cherry, layered with subtle spicy nuances. On the palate, it is fresh and harmonious, showcasing vibrant fruit, refined tannins, and a long, persistent finish.

Vineyards

The vineyards are located in Friuli Venezia Giulia, in the heart of the Isonzo zone, an area shaped by the alluvial deposits of the Isonzo River. The soils, rich in pebbles, ensure excellent drainage and promote balance, precision, and expressive finesse in the grapes.

Harvest period

End of September.

Vinification and ageing

The carefully selected grapes are destemmed and undergo maceration for 10–15 days, depending on the vintage. The wine is then racked off and transferred to temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, where malolactic fermentation is completed. It is subsequently aged in stainless steel for around six months, refining its balance and enhancing its finesse.
