Winemaking Information
This wine has two harvests, 50 percent of the grapes are dried in the sunlight (passito) for a minimum of three weeks. The remainder of the fruit matures on the plant until September. Once the fermentation has started, the dried grapes are added to the base wine and left macerating for about three months, until a balance between alcohol content and residual sugar is achieved. The Sole d'Agosto spends six months in small barrels and then a few months in steel tank before bottling around May in a 750ml format.
