About Producer Nerdy stuff Serving

Guided by the skilled hand of Riccardo Cotarella, a prominent Italian enologist, their wines carry a touch of greatness. Nestled on chalky limestone soils, their vineyards cradle the essence of their terroir. These unique soils impart distinct flavors to their wines, an embodiment of the land itself.

Cristo Di Campobello's commitment to excellence doesn't go unnoticed. Their wines are adorned with high scores from wine critics—a testament to the dedication that flows from vineyard to cellar.

Fermentation

Hand harvesting in small crates. After further selection, the bunches are de-stemmed then lightly crushed. Pumping over the must at regular intervals guarantees optimum extraction of the substances in the skins. Maceration for 18 days in temperature controlled conditions.

Maturation

Fourteen months in 225-liter French oak barrels (Nevers, Tronçais, Allier), one-third new, and a minimum of twelve months in bottle.
