The grapes come from a single, two-hectare vineyard site with silty clay soils formed during the alluvial phase of the Elsa River in the Upper Pliocene. The vines are trained using spur cordon at around 5.000 plants per hectare and are hand-harvested. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks for around 15 days, after which the wine matures for nine to twelve months in oak casks. It shows a deep ruby colour, intense floral and fruity aromas with spicy notes, and a warm, soft body with pleasant acidity and well-integrated tannins.
