Premo Sangiovese Igp Rubicone Rosso

GRAPES:

100% Sangiovese

VINEYARDS AREA:

The Sangiovese grapes are selected from vineyards in the province of Rimini, in Emilia-Romagna. The vines are trained using the Guyot system. The plants are an average of 15 years old, with a yield of approximately 2.5 kg per vine.

HARVEST:

The grapes are harvested by hand in the second half of September.

VINIFICATION:

After de-stemming, the grapes are not crushed, so they remain whole, reducing damage to the skins and optimizing colour extraction. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 25℃ for 7 days. Frequent pumping over and rack and return are carried out in the early stages of fermentation to achieve a gentle extraction of aromas and tannins. After racking, malolactic bacteria are added to induce malolactic fermentation.

AGEING:

40% of the wine is aged in oak barrels for 6 months.

ALCOHOL:

12.5%
