It remains one of the best expressions of the grape on the market today. Since the 2017 vintage, it has included 15% stems. The \"progetto raspi\" is something that was passed down from Fabio's father, Elio. The trick is to avoid the bitterness of the stems, something Fabio does by sun-drying the fruit on cane mats as if it were an appassimento. The wine ages in cement for 40 months. The fruit comes from a 2.2-hectare site with clay and sand at 500 meters in elevation.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pipProdProReviews_item\" itemprop=\"review\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Review\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"sr-only\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_rating\"\u003e92\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\" itemprop=\"author\"\u003eWine Enthusiast\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003eThe warm nose balances the sweetness of cherry cola and blood orange with the savoriness of dirt and mixed herbs.
