The vines grow at around 350 metres above sea level on gentle south-facing slopes with calcareous clay and Galestro soils. Both varieties ferment together spontaneously in concrete tanks; the skins remain in contact with the wine for 25 days. The wine then matures for 12 to 14 months on its fine lees in concrete and is released unfiltered after three years. Stylistically, it shows ripe red fruit and violets, lively acidity, freshness and soft, enveloping tannins. Production is around 4,700 bottles.
