CantinArte grows grapes without the use of herbicide, insecticide, systemic fungicides or fertilizers. The vineyards are in the surroundings of Bucchianico (300 meters above sea level) and Navelli ( 700 meters above sea level).
This last Vineyard is located at the foot of Gran Sasso in a very windy place with a high temperature range. Here the soil is rich in skeleton, clay-calcareous and rocky. Row is the wine training with a vineyard density of 5200 grapevines per hectare. This wine is the result of a perfect synergy between two areas: the terroir of Bucchianico gives structure and longevity; that of Navelli brings elegance, freshness and minerality.
Aging First 10 days of September (this grape variety is able to reach a good sugar level without loosing its great acidity; changing the harvesting time we are able to enhance the freshness and the structure of the wine) White vinification with cryomaceration for 18/24 hours, precrushing and soft pressing of the grape. Fermentation occurs with yeasts in steel tanks at a low temperature (10 - 13 Ā°C). This wine can also be appreciated after 3 - 5 years.

From CANTINARTE The inky deepness of the ruby color concedes just a purplish rim, opening into a very intense nose with brisk mineral notes of pencil lead, dark fruits and blackberry with slightly balsamic nuances in the background. The palate attack is always very soft and caressing thanks to the sweet tannins.
