Castello Del Terriccio - Terriccio 2016 Ml. 750
Winery Castello Del Terriccio
Characteristic
The modern history of the estate begins after World War I, when it was acquired by Count Serrafini Ferri, whose family still owns the property. In the 1920s the Serrafini Ferris' implemented major improvements to the property. This family laid the groundwork for the estate that remains more or less unchanged today.The extent of the property also allowed the vines to be planted in a leopard spot pattern on the most favourable plots, on the basis of the qualities of the soil, dew point, exposition to sea breezes and exposure to light. The vineyards are facing the sea and therefore receive reflected light, with more exposure compared to areas lighted directly by the sun. The soils chosen have mineral elements, including iron and copper, mixed in a medium texture with a balance of sands and silt. These factors combine to give the Castello del Terriccio red wines an impressive breadth of structure and high levels of polyphenols.
