Recanati Recanati Bittuni

Bittuni is a local ancient variety from which red wines were already being made thousands of years ago. The variety was almost extinct and only a few vines remained. Hand-harvested in mid-September, the Bittuni grapes are transported under refrigeration to the winery, where they undergo gentle fermentation with the rachises, and then mature for 6 months in year-old Burgundy oak barrels. The Bittuni is harvested from an unwatered vineyard and grown using the traditional trellising method known as “Hebron Overhead Arbor”. Tasting notes: Light, flowery, and aromatic minerality comes a wine with a bouquet of red cherries and Mediterranean spices.
