Datasheet for Colli di Luni Vermentino Cavagino 2023 Cantine Lunae:
Cavagino is one of the area’s first vermentino crus. It comes from a small vineyard located in the hills of Luni that represents one of the gems of the estate. From the very first harvests, the character and great qualities of the vineyard’s fruit emerged. These grapes are vinified through a process that enhances their complexity. Appellation: Colli di Luni d.o.c. Vermentino Grape varieties: Vermentino Alcohol content: 14 % vol. Territory: Colli di Luni and Castelnuovo Magra Vinification: Cold maceration on the skins for about 12 hours, temperature-controlled fermentation in steel for 60 % of the total mass, fermentation in barriques for the remaining part of the must. Maturation on fine lees in steel tanks for about 6 months.
Production method
Cavagino comes from the vinification of Vermentino grapes from a single vineyard located in the hills of Luni (about 250 meters above sea level). It is one of the areas with the greatest vocation thanks to a unique microclimate and a soil rich in skeleton with a good presence of boulder. The low yields per hectare and the particular vinification, the must obtained by soft pressing ferments partly in wood and partly in steel, lead the vine to express itself to its full potential.
