Nerello Mascalese
Almost entirely Nerello Mascalese with very small amounts of Nerello Cappuccio from the single contrada, San Lorenzo. The vineyard is 8 hectares with vines 80+ years in age, at 750-780 m above sea level but only the oldest parcel of vines is selected for the single contrada bottling. Spontaneous fermentation is followed by 18 months in second passage Slavonian oak.
