During the manual harvest in the third decade of September, only the finest grapes are selected for production. The grapes are gently pressed, allowing the resulting must to macerate on the skins for an average of 10 to 12 days. The spontaneous fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks, preserving the Sangiovese’s distinct aromas and flavors. This is followed by racking and malolactic fermentation, which adds further smoothness to the wine.

For a period of 24 months, the Il Roccafiore Sangiovese Roccafiore matures in large Slavonian oak barrels of 50 Hl. This extended aging process enhances complexity and structure in the wine. After bottling, it rests for a minimum of 6 months, allowing the components to harmonize and develop increased elegance.
