Vermentino Colli di Luni DOC 'Black Label'

Sustainable
    • Description :

      The Black Label Vermentino is Lunae Bosoni's flagship wine: the traditional characteristics of Vermentino are enhanced by the selection of grapes (mostly from older vines located on the hillsides) and cold maceration (cryomaceration) for 12 hours on the skins prior to pressing, which translates into more complexity.
      Vineyards: Guyot. Vine density is approx. 4,000 plants per hectare. Yields by hectare are 70/75 quintals.
      Vinification: Hand harvesting takes place usually in mid-September. Cold maceration (cryomaceration) on the skins for 24-48 hours before pressing. Fermentation is then carried out in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures.
      Aging: Stainless steel until bottling in late January/February. The wine rests for one month on the lees.
