 ROSSO DI MONTEPULCIANO |
|
|
Grapes: Sangiovese in purity
Vineyard’s altitude:: 300 m over sea-level
Ground: of Pliocene origin, made up of clay rich in potassium, of yellow sands (tufa), of crushed and pudding stones mixed up with giant shells, allows to get high quality grapes and hence “Vino Nobile”, “of all wines the king” as the Tuscan poet Francesco Redi defined it.
Plant system: guyot and spur cord
Plant density: 3300-5000 vine-stocks per hectare
Micro-climate: a climate marked by dry summers, cooled by periodical hill-breezes and by a long autumn, sometimes allows even the noble rot, that gives a wine that is “pure poetry”.
Vintage: a first selection of the grapes bunches in the vineyard and the manual harvesting assure an excellent product.
Wine making system: a further sorting before a gentle stripping of the grape stalks, the vinification system by means of the delestage technique in fermentation tanks made of steel and the modern Ganimede patented system, allow to get a wine that is specially fragrant and delicate. Both in the rooms and in the tanks the temperature is controlled. The pressing is made by means of a modern Bucher pneumatic press and the decanting is carried out by means of a Ragazzini soft pump.
Physical and chemical evolution: after the alcoholic and malo-lactic fermentation the wine is poured into oak barrels of different capacity, where it stands for some months in underground rooms, sheltered from temperature ranges. The refining in bottles precedes the presentation of the new wine.
The wine is then submitted to the judgement of the Chamber of Commerce commission for the D.O.C. acknowledgement.
Data of the analysis: alcoholic content: 13.93%, total acidity 5.18 g/l., ph 3.54, malic acid 0.06 g/l. total sulphur dioxide 71.00 mg/l, dry extract 31.20 g/l.
Tasting notes: the wine is ruby red, with strong fruity perfumes, its bouquet is enriched thanks to the storage into oak barrels. A full-bodied, well rounded and velvety wine.
