The Ronchedone Rosso di Ca' dei Frati wine is obtained from Marzemino, Sangiovese, and Cabernet grapes grown in the hilly morainic areas near Lugana di Sirmione, in the province of Brescia. After the harvest, carried out with a yield of 80 quintals per hectare, the grapes were transported to the winery for vinification. For this red wine with an incisive character, the maceration of the must in contact with the skins and the alcoholic fermentation took place in stainless steel. Instead, the aging occurred for 14 months in barriques and for an additional 10 months in the bottle.
