A powerful wine that fully expresses all its territoriality, sharp, with the right tannin that even more tame will guarantee over time a rare penetrating force. Ascents of raspberries and blueberries with light pleasant shocks due to minerality and tannin, with hints of spices and resins.
The selected grapes are destemmed and crushed and fermentation involves maceration on the skins for about 9 days. After the first fermentation the wine ages for 15 months in barriques.

Cultivar delle Volte
The winery was established in 1997, when Bignotti’s family decided to start to cultivate the tiny vineyard of the paternal grandfather, who had always run it and had produced wine from the grapes in the traditional 15thcentury-cellars located in via Monte Grappa.
