"The Italian harvest unfolds under a thousand different conditions – climatic, territorial, environmental – and furthermore, with 500 cultivated varieties, each with its own ripening time. Moreover, the oenological objectives of the wineries can alter the canonical harvest times, just consider the case of sparkling wine bases or wines destined for long aging, which require phenolic maturity in addition to technological ripeness. This extended harvest period is our wealth, a peculiar characteristic that sets our wines apart."
