Obliti Late Harvest 37.5CL

During the autumn of 2012, the ideal conditions were created for the grapes to be concentrated on the vine. The rains and humidity in October allowed the Botrytis cinereae fungus to settle in and subsequently, with a few drier weeks, the grapes began to dehydrate, concentrating more and more. The Winter Solstice – December 21st – was the day chosen to harvest the grapes that were already quite dehydrated. Harvesting is mandatory by hand, with care being taken to harvest only grapes duly affected by noble rot. In the cellar, the grapes were selected again and gently pressed, followed by a long fermentation in stainless steel that lasted for around 6 months. After fermentation, the wine aged in used barrels for 2 years.
