Mediterranean climate with some continental influence. Lithosols of granitic origin with a light texture and low organic matter. Hand-harvested into 15?kg crates. Gentle crushing and destemming, followed by prolonged skin maceration. Ageing in used French oak barrels with natural clarification aided by the sharp winter cold of the Serra da Estrela. Single-varietal Nebbiolo. This great Italian grape reveals its identity in the Albicastrense terroir, producing a fresh, elegant wine with strong gastronomic appeal. First vintage, released as a limited edition of 1,600 bottles.
