Vineyards
Grapes for Cuprum are harvested from the vineyard "La Quercia Secca" in the commune of Civitella in Val di Chiana, located on the hills of Chianti. The soils are predominantly clay, with interspersed limestone, which contributes to the optimal development of the vine.

The exposure takes place in oak barrels
Grapes are harvested manually, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature. Only natural yeast present in the winery is used, which reflects the farm’s commitment to traditional winemaking methods.
