What’s In It: 100% Aglianico
How It Was Made:
Production area: family-owned vineyards in Montemiletto.
Winemaking: carefully selected grapes are vinified with an average period of maceration on the skins of 8-10 days. After alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, the wine ages in small oak barrels for 12-18 months, and then for at least 24-30 months in the bottle.
