Production Area - Castelnuovo Berardenga

Grapes - 100% Sangiovese

Longevity - Over 25 years

Climatic trend - A fairly cool spring was followed by a hot and long summer, but with good temperature swings between day and night (minimum temperatures were always moderate in both July and August), allowing the grapes to complete the ripening process in an optimal manner. Also worthy of note is the absence of water stress thanks to the rains in June and September.

Harvest - Harvested by hand, selecting the best Sangiovese grapes from the Fontanelle vineyard between the second and third week of September.
