The ground where the vines are cultivated is alluvial so rich of calcareous with a medium deep structure. This land is about 150 meters above the sea level and the cultivation method is the cordon spur one. The harvest, as tradition, is divided into two steps according to the maturation periods of the two vines used. The Merlot is picked the first week of September whereas the Montepulciano has to be picked the third week of September. The fermentation takes place in vitrified cementer tanks under temperature control and stable at 28°C and follows the maceration of the peels for at least 10 days.
