Grapes
Merlot 100%. They come from a vineyard facing west, growing on a clay soil, but well drained sand and pebbles, suitable for Merlot, which in the “Bolognese” hills has a long tradition. Grapes are harvested half of September, later than the traditional harvesting time, when they come up to full ripening. Grapes are hand picked and selected at first glance and then put in small plastic crates.
