Lupus in Fabula Late Harvest

The vines are planted in Gallura on predominantly sandy soils of weathered granite with a thin layer of clay and are trained on trellises. The late-harvested grapes are picked by hand into small crates from late September to early October. Gentle vacuum pressing is followed by cryomaceration; temperature-controlled fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. The wine matures for 14 months unfiltered on the lees and grape-pulp particles. It remains dry and warm, with pear compote, citrus and strawberry-tree honey, almond and a saline finish.
