100% Sagrantino. From Fongoli's oldest vines, which are certified-biodynamic and were planted in 1975 by Angelo Fongoli's grandfather (nicknamed "Fracanton") on the estate's heavy clay-limestone soils on a southwest-facing slope. The berries are destemmed and fermented spontaneously in open-topped clay amphorae without sulfur or temperature control. Maceration lasts 4-5 months with gentle hand punchdowns. The wine is aged in old Slavonian oak botti for around 5 years. It is bottled without filtration or sulfur and aged another year before release.
