This Carmenero from Ca' del Bosco Winery is produced with 100% Carménère grapes, grown in the company's vineyards of Passirano, near Brescia. The grapes are harvested in September, after a careful selection in the vineyard: alcoholic fermentation and maceration last for 18 days and after racking, the still warm wine is decanted into small oak barrels where it remains for 12 months. It ends with a bottle aging of 3 years and 3 months.
