SAGITTA
Barbera del Monferrato Superiore Docg
A barbera that tastes of territory, containing all the emotions and sensations of Monferrato
Only Barbera grapes from vineyards with the best exposure are selected to produce Sagitta wine. At the end of September, the grapes are harvested manually and vinified in steel tanks with a couple of weeks of maceration. After the malolactic fermentation the wine is poured into oak barrels of 25 hectoliters where it remains for 2 years. Once bottled, it is stored in our basement for at least 6 months.
