Colli di Luni Vermentino Etichetta Nera 2023

Cantine Lunae's Vermentino Etichetta Nera (Black Label) represents the search for the quintessence of Vermentino, which moves away from the common idea of an immediate and easy-drinking wine. It is made with low yields from hilly vineyards in the villages of Ortonovo and Castelnuovo Magra, cultivated with 4000 vines per hectare. The soils rich in stone give structure; the harvest is decided at the moment of greatest maturity in order to have a must richer in sugars.

Winemaking includes a short maceration. It begins with whole berries and only after 2 days the solid parts are separated and the fermentation goes on without the skins. Fermentation is carried out in temperature-controlled steel vats and the wine ages in steel vats for about 6 months.
