200 metres refers to the minimum altitude above sea level which our strict rules of production require to produce the so-called “hilltop grape” that goes into our Tintilia Molise DOC, an exclusive Molise native grape.
Deep and lively ruby red; characteristic spicy scent anticipates fragrant traits of cherries, morello, plum and pot herbs. In the mouth it is soft and smooth with delicate tannins and good freshness. Great persistence with return of pleasant peppery notes.
Manual harvesting with accurate selection of grapes. Destalking and crushing with maceration of the skins in stainless steel at 26°C for around 15 days . Soft pressing and selection of the different portions of must. Aged in stainless steel for 4 months and bottled in March- April.
