Don Luigi Riserva Rosso DOC BIO Di Majo Norante

The red wine Don Luigi represents the most important product of the Di Majo Norante winery. This wine is obtained by a careful selection of the best and ripest grapes of Montepulciano. The must has a long rest on the peels and then it has to mature in little oak barrels. The grapes cultivated at Martarosa hamlet at 100 meters above the sea level in the core of the best DOC area of Molise. The calcareous soil give structure and body to the taste and the cultivation method (the vertical-trellised) and the youth of the vines permit the harvest to be between the end of October and the beginning of November. The wine making process consists on the maceration of the peels on the must for 1 month. The malolactic fermentation takes place completely and the aging takes place in new barrels for at least 12 months and further 12 months in bottle.
