Croci Vino Rosso "Valtolla" 2019

The soil of Croci's steep, southeast-facing hillside vineyard is mainly a crumbly, sandy, limestone-rich clay full of marine fossils called terre fossili piacenzano; but higher up the hill, there is a heavier, iron-rich clay called terra rossa better suited for a still red wine rather than for Croci's frizzante rifermentato Gutturnio.
