It’s crafted from the estate's youngest and most productive vines, aged between 5 and 20 years, grown on gentle slopes with heavy clay soils. The organically farmed fruit is hand-harvested, destemmed, and fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel, undergoing a 20-day skin maceration. The wine is then aged in stainless steel, with no sulfur used at any stage. The name \"Trebbiolo\" comes from the nearby Trebbia river and valley.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNatural nose that blows off with air - Bright purple in color, it offers aromas of sweet red cherries, earthy spices, and subtle vegetal notes.
