Muraje Piemonte Lasu Vino Rosso 2021 750ml

Organic. 60% Nebbiolo and 40% other local red grapevine varieties, widespread in the Canavese and Pre-Alpine areas (Neyret, Ner d'Ala, Vernassa and others). Vineyards are cultivated between 300 and 600 m above sea level, on centuries old terraces supported by dry stone walls on rocky amphitheater of Carema town in province of Turin (Piedmont, north-west of Italy). The vines are on average 50 years old and are trained using the ancient ‘pergola caremese’ (‘topia’ in local dialect) method. Grapes were harvested and sorted manually in mid-October. In the evening, the grapes were de-stemmed and pressed, and the must went into stainless steel tank for spontaneous alcoholic fermentation. In the spring, after spontaneous malolactic fermentation process, the wine was racked again in exhausted tonneaux and barrique. The wine is usually bottled in September following the harvest.
