Terroir

The vines are situated in the Oltradige, at an altitude of between 350 and 450 metres, with exposure to the south-west. The ground is made up of a compact and impermeable morainic soil, formed by sediments from the Ice Age that are rich in limestone, clay and minerals.

Climate

The Mediterranean climate is characterised by hot summers and mild winters, as well as the Ora, a warm afternoon wind that comes from Lake Garda in the south.

Vinification

The JURA Cabernet Riserva grapes are harvested by hand. After being carefully destemmed, the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks with gentle pumping over. The wine is then aged in barriques for 12 months.
