Rossini Riserva Piantate lunghe Conero DOCG is a red wine made from Montepulciano grapes coming from the "degli angeli" vineyard on the slopes of Monte Conero, near Ancona.
Vineyard: multiclonal system of 4650 plants per hectare bred with simple and double spurred cordon on a calcareous-clayey soil typical of Monte Conero at a height of about 350 meters. S.l.m. facing south and about 2000 meters. from the sea.
The harvest in early October was excellent, with not too abundant production, about 70 Ql per hectare, and optimal sugar content, 20/21 babo, and good and high acidity.
Vinification: Harvested by hand and in crates, the grapes, after a careful selection in the vineyard, are pressed, de-stemmed and cold macerated for 3 days in a steel fermenter with temperature control, then fermented for a few days with continuous pumping over to extract from anthocyanin skins and tannins to give the wine color and structure; finally the wine passes into vitrified cement tanks where the malolactic fermentation takes place. A part of the wine, about 20%, is placed in second passage barriques for four months and then added to the rest before bottling.
