The “Taglio del Tralcio” Terre degli Svevi – Re Manfredi is an Aglianico del Vulture that comes from vineyards located about 500 meters above sea level, characterized by a volcanic subsoil. The grapes ripen using the taglio del tralcio system, which involves a dehydration phenomenon of the berries, and thus a consequent slight drying responsible for the residual sugar that is then perceived during tasting. The must ferments in stainless steel containers, and the wine is then transferred to mature for 6 months in large wooden barrels; after bottling, it ages for another 6 months directly in glass before being released for sale.
