Production technique
To obtain this wine, characterised by the total absence of sulphur dioxide added in any form, the blending of Cabernet Sauvignon with Barbera has proved to be of fundamental importance. In addition to giving a complex sensation to the fragrance and making the taste rich and lingering, it gives the wine, which has a clear but non-invasive tannic component, a structure able to support it without the need for extraneous preservatives. An accurate and ongoing assistance of the production process in all of its phases completes the work of Nature. This wine is 100% natural and handmade.
