A modern wine cellar but at the same time the custodian of age-old knowledge, as only a member of the family could design: Agnese Mazzei, in fact, is responsible for the innovative, low environmental impact project, where aesthetic taste is combined with functionality. An important project on three levels of depth, to allow the grapes harvested in the yard to “descend” into the various stages of the vinification and maturation process in the wood in the most natural way possible: the force of gravity. The special 74 truncated cone-shaped steel wine-making vats with a capacity of 100 hl, allow the grapes from each parcel to be processed separately to safeguard biodiversity, giving rise to a series of microvinifications that, together with the skilful use of punching-down and long macerations, allow wines with an exceptional extraction of colour and particularly soft and elegant tannins to be obtained. At a depth of 15 metres, in the large barrique cellar where more than 3,000 oak barrels dwell, the temperature and the right degree of humidification is guaranteed by five layers of water that flow naturally along the exposed rock walls.
