This elevation allows the grapes to retain balancing acidity to theconcentrated fruits and enables Ca Rugate to produce a wine which is elegant and food-friendly. The vines yield 90 quintals per hectare and are grown in gravel and limestone soils, providing excellent drainage for the vines. The grapes are hand-pickedduring the last two weeks of September and laid flat in small wooden boxes containing an average of just six kilograms. This allows good air flow during the crucial drying process.
