Classification<br />South Tyrol DOC<br /><br />Growing region<br /><br />The grapes for this wine come from our best and oldest vineyards in Mazon and Girlan. These vineyards are particularly suitable due to microclimatic conditions as well as<br />the age of the vines and have proven themselves over decades. The main part of the grapes comes from Mazon, where we find deep clay and limestone soils. The second<br />part comes from our oldest vineyards in Girlan, where we find a moraine deposit on volcanic porphyry rock.<br />Vinification and ageing<br /><br />The grapes are harvested by hand and delivered in small containers. The must - 10% of which is vinified as whole grapes - is then gravity-fed into steel vats where<br />fermentation takes place (20-24 days). After malolactic fermentation, the wine is matured for 12 months in barriques and small wooden barrels (12 hl). This is followed by 8<br />months of ageing in large wooden barrels (70 hl). The wine is stored in the bottle for another 8 months.<br />Wine portrait<br /><br />Ruby red colour with light garnet nuances.
