Oltreluna Monica

The grapes come from the Benatzu Coloru vineyard site near Serdiana, from vines around 30 years old trained in the traditional Alberello system. The calcareous-clayey, stone-poor soil defines the site. After destemming, the must undergoes skin contact for at least five days at a controlled temperature; fermentation takes place with selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks. The wine then matures for around six months in underground concrete vats and for a further two to three months in bottle. It displays an intense ruby colour with violet reflections, vegetal and spicy notes, a touch of liquorice, a dry and soft palate, fresh acidity, medium body and harmonious persistence.
