Muraje Sumie 2020 750ml

Organic. 100% Nebbiolo. 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 grapes are from vines which are on average 50 years old and are trained using the ancient ‘pergola caremese’ method. The grapes were harvested and sorted manually in the middle of October in small boxes of 20 kg. The grapes were de-stemmed and pressed as soon as they arrived in cellar, and the must went into 15 hl concrete tank for spontaneous alcoholic fermentation. The wine underwent spontaneous malolactic fermentation in the spring and immediately after was racked in early summer 2021 with slight sulphiting. The wine, after the first 12 months of aging in tonneau, has continued to age in concrete tank for the last 8 months until bottling in September 2022, without filtration.
