Fattoria Zerbina's vines are planted to calcareous, clay and limestone soils with south east and south west exposure, on the Vigna Capanno, Malvone, Montignano Pazzo and Sopra Vicchio estate vineyards. Plantings are at an average density of 2800 per hectare for the Sopra Vicchio site, 3600 at Malvone and 8300 on Montignano and Capanno. Exclusively Sangiovese di Romagna grapes are all hand harvested, the bunches carefully selected and destemmed. Fermentation and maceration is carried out in steel vats with skin contact under temperature controlled conditions for twelve days. Following completion of natural malolactic, the wine is reated to six months unwooded maturation prior to bottling.
