Il Civettaio is a wonderful organic winemaker in the Maremma area of Tuscany.
Finally the sangiovese harvest has begun.
They had very bad weather in the last week but for the owner Gregorio, the grapes were
not ripe enough, so he took the risk and waited.
Today was a wonderful autumn day, a bit of fog rising on the hills and
the sun shining.
The grapes are healthy so everything seems good.
Vermentino and Chiu’ Rosato are fermenting slowly at 15 degrees; very
nice nose!
The sangiovese fermentation is starting.
