The over 50-year-old vines grow on calcareous-clayey soils at around 530 metres altitude. The grapes are hand-picked from 6 to 10 September, destemmed and macerated for 20 hours without sulphur. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts for 15 days at 17–18 °C in underground concrete tanks; the wine then matures for six months on the fine lees without bâtonnage. In the glass, it shows lemon, dried herbs, fennel and mineral notes. On the palate, it is fresh, saline and precise, with a firm mineral finish. Source: Bodegas Frontonio, product page.
