It comes from vineyards that are even 100 years old with an average yield of 50 Ql/Ha, the harvest takes place manually in boxes with careful selection of the best bunches. The grapes are quickly taken to the cellar where they are separately subjected to pressing with the skins subsequently remaining in contact with the must for approximately 21 days in stainless steel vats, with frequent pumping over and delestages. At the end of the fermentation processes, the wine is placed in oak barriques to complete the refinement before being bottled. Fruit of grapes that grow only in Mandrilosai this is a unique wine.
