Description

San Silvestro is located in the territory of the Commune of Novello. The grapes are mostly grown in the Langhe and from vineyards found in the Roero and the Monferrato regions. San Silvestro represents the continuation of a project begun by Giovanni Sartirano which has been passed down through four generations. Today it is run by cousins Paolo and Guido Sartirano and San Silvestro has gradually expanded beyond the local market and their wines can be found around the world.

The grapes were gently pressed prior to the fermentation, which took place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18 to 20°C and lasted 10 days. The wine was left to rest in tank on its fine lees for six months, which added texture and complexity, prior to being bottled.
