Ciliegiolo RÀMICI – Bussoletti

The Ciliegiolo Ràmici Bussoletti is the flagship cru of our winery, crafted from 100% Ciliegiolo grapes grown in the renowned vineyard located in the municipality of Alviano. The wine’s name comes from the vineyard’s toponym, paying homage to its unique origin. The vines are planted in sandy soils at an altitude of 190 meters above sea level, just 150 meters from the banks of the Tiber River. Leggi di più

Our vineyards, with an average age of 45 years, reflect our care and expertise, ensuring high-quality grapes. Cultivated using the double cordon spur method, we achieve yields of 300 to 400 grams per plant, ensuring excellent fruit.

The harvest is carried out by hand with great attention, collecting the grapes in 20 kg crates to preserve their integrity. Fermentation occurs spontaneously over a period of about 6-10 days, ensuring the fullest expression of the Ciliegiolo varietal’s character.

After racking, the Ciliegiolo Ràmici Bussoletti ages for about 12 months in 500-liter tonneaux, adding elegance and complexity to the wine. It is then carefully transferred to 25-hectoliter French oak barrels, where it rests for an additional 12 months. This allows for further harmonious development of its aromas and flavors.

Finally, after a meticulous bottling process, the Ciliegiolo Ràmici Bussoletti rests in our cellars for 8-12 months, where it further refines, reaching its peak expression. The annual production of the Ciliegiolo Ràmici Bussoletti ranges from 2,500 to 3,300 bottles, a limited quantity that highlights the attention to detail and our commitment to delivering a product of the highest quality.
