From the pure vinification of Lagrein. The origin is the classic one of the hills of Pressano and Sorni, Trentino. For the vinification the grapes are harvested manually towards the beginning of October. The different vineyards are harvested and vinified together after a careful assessment of maturity. Maceration is traditional with light pumping over and delicate punching down. The wine path is long and different. Part of the Greggi rests in small French oak barrels and a part in large wooden barrels. It is only the time and the evolution of the wine itself that establishes the best time for bottling, which generally takes place at least 30 months after the harvest. It will then take a minimum of 6 months in the bottle before sale.
