Istine’s Riserva, ‘Le Vigne’, is a blend of the best fruit from the different Istine vineyards (‘Le Vigne’ means ‘the vineyards,’). Angela describes this as ‘the perfect synthesis’ of her vineyards; the wine is warm, balsamic, red-fruited, and although not forbiddingly tannic when young, obviously suited to aging in the bottle. This is a genuine Riserva, the best raw materials combined to best express the estate.
Fermentation: 45 days maceration, low-temperature fermentation in concrete vats with indigenous yeasts, crus vinified separately
Aging: Crus aged separately for 12 months in 20 hL Slavonian oak barrels, blended, then aged for another 12 in 30 hL barrel, then 12 months in bottle.
