Here is D’Annunzio’s dedication to his pastoral tragedy The daughter of Jorio: “To the land of Abruzzi, to my mother, to my sisters, to my brother in exile, to my buried father, to all my dead, to all my people between the mountains and the sea, this song of ancient blood I consecrate.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"features ter\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eVINEYARD\u003c\/h4\u003e\nLocated in various municipalities in the Abruzzo Region, the vineyards from which we produce Jorio are distinguished by the special attention which is dedicated to pruning. The aim is to limit fruit production and create ideal conditions for air to circulate around the productive layer of the vine. These are essential conditions for ensuring ideal ripening of the Montepulciano grape.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"features ter\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"features ven\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHARVEST\u003c\/h4\u003e\nThe harvest is carried out by hand and normally takes place in the period from the end of September to the mid of October.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"features ven\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"features vin\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eVINIFICATION\u003c\/h4\u003e\nThe grapes are destalked and lightly pressed, then undergo maceration for 10- 12 days in steel fermentation vats. The temperature in this period is kept at between 26o and 28°C. As soon as the alcoholic fermentation is finished, the wine starts the malolactic fermentation.
