Malvasia di Candia

Procanico makes up sixty percent of the blend, with Malvasia di Candia, Malvasia Toscana, Vermentino and smaller amounts of older local varieties. The vines were fourteen years old and planted at high density on a steep east-facing site at 470 metres, over volcanic soil. The grapes were destemmed and placed in wooden vats. After fermentation, the wine spent about two years in 10- and 15-hectolitre barrels. No additives were used.
