The wine is made from carefully selected grapes grown in the Vigneto Alto vineyard, which is known for its unique soil composition and ideal microclimate. The winemaking process involves a traditional method of drying the grapes on straw mats, which concentrates their flavors and aromas. The resulting wine is rich, full-bodied, and complex, with notes of dark fruit, chocolate, and spice.
