Winemaker Notes
Kypra grapes come from the "Vigna Bassa", a vineyard with south-east exposure, at 250-350 meters above sea level. They are grown with the double guyot system and arise on a soil rich in silt, limestone and chalk, which gives the wine a strong flavor and aroma.
Alcoholic fermentation takes place in concrete tanks triggered only by indigenous yeasts. The aging lasts for 9 months in concrete tanks and a further 2 months in bottle. We advise to drink it between 14 and 16° Celsius and to save some wine for the following day to fully appreciate its aromatic evolution.
The Story
The winery conducts old recovered and partly renewed vineyards organically divided into nine parcels for a total of 6.61 hectares. The vines have different exposures, soils, altitudes - between 200 and 400 meters above sea level - and an average age of about 40 years. Given their age, it is very important to manage the vineyard in order to guarantee the right balance between production and survival of the plants, between the rows we find wild grass and the vines are treated exclusively with copper and sulfur, avoiding any intervention with synthetic products. No fertilizations are carried out and green manure is practiced. The work in the countryside follows the rhythm of the seasons and is done manually. Fermentations are spontaneous, without the addition of adjuvants and additives. All the parcels are vinified separately, to understand in depth the characteristics of each individual terroir and with the specific purpose of creating a wide variability, altimetric, pedological and microclimatic.
