Gli Eremi

The grapes come from an approximately 0.5-hectare, south-facing vineyard site in San Michele, planted in 1980. The poor soil consists of clay and limestone with veins of sandstone and gypsum. Picking takes place in stages from mid-September to early October. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with native yeasts in old oak casks; depending on the source, the wine is aged for around twelve to 24 months on the fine lees. It shows a golden colour, citrus peel, white peach, apricot, hay, herbs, toasted almond and salty notes. It is fresh, deep, full-bodied and persistent.
