Vinification
The Levanti plot is exceptional. Internally, we call it “Elly” because it was managed for years by the Grand Dame of Grisons, Elly Süsstrunk. Fast-drying, stony soil, deep-rooted, old vines (40 to 50 years old), weak and vital — these are all attributes of a top individual vineyard. Grapes picked by hand extremely selectively and carefully drained in the cellar, via a conveyor belt to large oak fermentation stations. After alcoholic fermentation is complete, the mash is placed on the press using gravity, the young wine is placed in stainless steel tanks and is of course sufficiently pre-clarified there over several days, after which the wine is aged in French barriques for 12 months.
