- Other Information:The native grape variety Maturano IGT del Frusinate are harvested in crates and brought to the cellar. After de-stemming, crushing and a short maceration time on the skins, the grapes go into a hydraulic press to guarantee a soft pressing; subsequently the ‘pied de cuve’ is inoculated which has fermented previously spontaneously. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in cement tanks and aging on fine lees for 6 months. The wine is aged in the bottle for a further 6 months. Racking is carried out by gravity without using pumps. No clarification or filtration. Alcohol level 12% Low quantity of sulfites
