All grapes grow in the vineyards owned by the winery in Siena municipality.. Both the processing in the vineyard and the winemaking in the cellar follow the strict protocols of the organic regulations.

THE WINEMAKING

The harvest is strictly manual and occurs when the grapes have reached the proper ripeness. After winemaking, the wine rests for at least four months in Slovenian oak barrels, and after blending and bottling, it rests a few more months in the cellar before being introduced onto the market.
