Production Method: In December, after the traditional vinification of fresh grapes in steel tanks, the wine is “passed over” on the fermented Amarone marc. This second fermentation and aging in wood enhance the intensity of color and aromas and a consequent structure enhancement. This is followed by about 12 months of mixed aging in second passage tonneaux and large mediumtoasted French oak barrels.
