Medium-textured soil, very moist in the immediate subsoil.
CHARACTERISTICS OF PLANT EQUIPMENT
The Trebbiano d'Abruzzo vines are trained with pergola Abruzzese system system with approximately 1,100 stocks per hectare (3m x 3m) while the Sauvignon vines are trained with a pergola Abruzzese system (3m x 1,5m) with approximately 2,200 stocks per hectare.
TIMES OF HARVEST AND WINE-MAKING
Late harvesting, generally during the months of November and December, is carried out in several stages, by selecting each time those bunches of grapes or parts of them that were most attacked by the noble rot. The grapes picked, that have a very high sugar content, are softly crushed and the must obtained is left in stainless steel tanks for fermentation. After fermentation, this wine is poured into French oak barrels (225 litres each) where it stays for approximately 12-14 months.
