What’s In It: 100% Cilieggiolo
How It Was Made:
This wine comes from the vinification of 100% Ciliegiolo grapes. The grapes come from Vigna Lunae: a vineyard parcel of about three hectares, set in a unique context for the microclimate and beauty of the area. The plants of this vineyard, nestled between the Ligurian Sea and the Apuan Alps (distance from the sea: 3 km, distance from the Apuan mountains: 15 km), surround and protect the remains of the ancient city of Luni and its Roman amphitheater. The loose, sandy soil and the warm breezy climate in the vineyard are elements in nature that collaborate with a simple vinification in steel, a short period of maceration on the skins in the cellar, and lead to a red wine with a natural pleasantness and freshness.
