Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie at 300 metres above sea level on clay-limestone soils, which give the grapes a mineral character and well-balanced acidity. The vines are 50 years old and are farmed organically and biodynamically, which gives bright aromas, a clean taste and a clear sense of terroir.

Grapes

The wine is made from 100% Cortese.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand and gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature, to preserve freshness and the subtle character of the bouquet.

Ageing

The wine is aged on its lees for up to 4 months, which adds body and a silky texture.

Tasting profile

Soft and fresh, with a golden hue and delicate almond notes. The aromas are bright and the taste is clean. The palate is mineral, with well-balanced acidity and a silky texture. It drinks light and easy.

Serving and pairing

Made for aperitifs. It is suggested with sea bass tartare, prawn salad or pasta with pesto sauce.
