About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The site has good sun exposure and limestone-clay soil.

Grapes

Vermentino.

Vinification

The grapes are gently pressed and the must settles naturally before undergoing primary and secondary fermentation.

Ageing

The wine develops in bottle for a further 6–8 months.

Tasting profile

Straw yellow, with notable intensity and chromatic consistency. The nose is fine, broad and persistent. Intense and persistent on the palate, it combines firm structure with softness and elegance, ending on an especially pleasant finish.

Serving and pairing

Pair with dried mullet or tuna bottarga, flavorful first courses and risottos, baked gilthead bream, tuna belly, white meats or medium-aged semi-hard cheeses. Available in a 750 ml format.
