Made from 90% Montepulciano and 10% Tintilia grown in estate vineyards on Italy's southeastern coast. Tintilia is a red grape variety most often grown in the Molise region. It tends to be soft and dry and contributes, color, alcohol and intensity to the wines in which it is blended. The grapes were harvested, pressed and spent 20-25 days in contact with the skins. The wine was then transferred to a combination of Allier and Tronçais barriques where it was aged for 12-18 months. Don Luigi was made in tribute to Luigi Di Majo, the patriarch of this family estate.
