The vine
The vineyard where this pure Merlot, called Alfin, origins is located in Montepulciano where the estate has a 10 hectars property of which 4 are plated with vines. The Merlot vineyard is one hectar and is cured with bio principles and maniacal attention.
Terrain
The terrain is very clayey but its exposition to north-west makes possible to produce a wine that's loaded in structure but also elegant and easy to drink.
Vinification
Vinidication is made in steel vats and anfter a fine selecrion on the vineyard where any grape is harvasted by hand and collected in small sized cages. Fermentation happens after a smoth pressing of few days.
Aging
Then the wine is transfered in barriques, some new and some of first passage, where the wine begind it refinement and malo-lactic spontaneous fermation.
Il vino affina in legno per poi essere imbottigliato e proseguire il suo affinamento in vetro prima della sua uscita in commercio.
