After a strictly manual harvest, the bunches are transported in boxes to the rooms dedicated to winemaking at the Podere Sapaio winery, where they are destemmed. The must, obtained by pressing the grapes, ferments at a controlled temperature in steel tanks, with a long maceration on the skins. Maturation, lasting a total of 14 months, takes place both in barriques and French tonneaux.
The Bolgheri Rosso "Volpolo" presents itself visually with a classic ruby color. Sensations of small berries emerge on the nose, enriched by spicier notes that reveal themselves on the finish. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, broad and enveloping, with a sip that highlights savory and fresh veins, making the tasting experience a real pleasure.
This label represents one of the most interesting production realities in the Bolgheri area of the last twenty years, obtaining the appreciation of both national and international critics.
