Tasting notes
Colour: is straw yellow, with slight greenish hints. Aroma: offers a particularly fine mineral feeling and notes of fruit and white flowers. Mouthfeel: lively, balanced, with a fresh acidity, which increases its persistance and favours its drinkability. A slight almondish finish.
Pairings
Excellent as aperitif, paired with hors d’oeuvres and fish ragú or vegetable first courses. It is the perfect match also for seafood, white meat and fresh young cheese.
Why we like it
Grapes are handpicked around mid-September and, after a careful selection, they are destemmed. In this way grapes only arrive in the wine-press for a delicate pressing. After the natural decantation, must is put in stainless steel tanks to avoid microbiological alteration which could compromise the wine quality. The alcoholic fermentation lasts 15/20 days and takes place at the controlled temperature of 18° C. The wine is left on native yeasts for about 3/4 months; it is then cold stabilized, before being bottled in March. This method helps to obtain a fresh, ready to drink wine.
