ADDITIONAL NOTES:
The lands of "Nizza" date back to the Tertiary age and are characterized as limestone soils, with an alkaline reaction, poor in organic matter and dry in summer. The vineyards belong to a restricted area of about 2-3 hectares and the production is very small (about 1.5 kg. per plant), in order to obtain a wine, very concentrated rich in extracts and coloring matter. After fermentation, it is matured in barrique for 12 months and further finished in large barrels for 12 months.
