Variety of grape: cabernet sauvignon 40%, merlot 40%, petit verdot 20%
Harvest: manual in boxes
Vinification: traditional fermentation on the skins with maceration at 28 degrees in small temperature-controlled stainless steel vats over 15-20 days depending on the phenolic maturity of the grapes and their variety.

First-pressed Oil Obtained exclusively from the olives produced in the groves owned by us in the district of Peccioli, Montecchio and Fabbrica. Olive varieties are Frantoio, Pendolino, Moraiolo and Leccino, strictly organic cultivation without the use of chemical fertilisers and pesticides. Flies are deterred with pheromone traps.
The olives are harvested whole, by hand in boxes, at the beginning of the veraison process and cold crushed daily, without any added chemicals. The extra virgin oil obtained is spicy at the start and develops an intense fruity olive aroma, a full-bodied but sweet and delicate flavour with a high vitamin E, A, K and D content that have anti- oxidant properties and a practically nonexistent acidity level. It is bottled at Le Palaie after decanting, with no filtering.
