Questo vino
Vineyard and terroir
The Malvasia grows in vineyards in the Isonzo River valley. The soils are warm, dry gravel, and the vineyards lie relatively close to the sea; these conditions suit the variety.
Vinification
After harvest the grapes are destemmed and cold-macerated for 12–18 hours. Fermentation uses selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks at a carefully controlled 19 °C. Malolactic fermentation is prevented.
Ageing
The wine rests on its fine lees in steel tanks until bottling.
Tasting profile
Inviting and elegant, with a lasting flavour. A distinctive saline acidity makes the wine easy to recognise.
