Poggiomattio Rosso

About This Wine

Poggiomattio Rosso comes from the highest vineyard on the estate, planted in 2017 at 400 m on the panoramic hill known as Poggio Mattio.
This site combines altitude, constant ventilation, and stony soils of shale, silt, and clay — ideal conditions for producing a refined and aromatic expression of Ciliegiolo.

The grapes are harvested by hand and fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. Maceration is conducted in the traditional red-wine style, allowing full extraction of colour, aroma, and structure, while still preserving the elegance typical of high-altitude vineyards.

After fermentation, Poggiomattio Rosso ages for 18 months in regenerated 500 L oak tonneaux, followed by additional time in bottle.
This long élevage adds depth and harmony, resulting in a wine that is both structured and graceful, with the potential to age.
