Vineyard and Soil
Fiulot is produced from the Costamiòle vineyard in the township of Agliano, known for its light-colored clay soil, rich in calcareous marl.
The Costamiòle vineyard was the second vineyard purchased when the Antinori family took ownership of Prunotto.
It is named for the house on the top of this hillside property.
Winemaking
Harvested grape bunches were immediately de-stemmed and crushed.
The grapes fermented on their skins for 5 days at controlled temperatures.
After alcoholic fermentation the wine underwent malolactic fermentation which was completed by early winter.
The wine was aged for several months in stainless steel tanks before bottling in the spring
Tasting notes
Fiulot is an intense ruby red color. On the nose it is youthful and grapey with fruity aromas of plums and cherries. The palate is fragrant and extremely pleasing.
