About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are grown in northern Italy, where nearby Lake Garda gives the area a milder climate than surrounding regions. Bright sunshine and the difference between daytime and nighttime temperatures concentrate flavour in the grapes and preserve their fresh, fruity character.

Vinification

The grapes are gently pressed, then fermented in stainless-steel tanks at 18–20 °C for five days.

Ageing

The wine ages in the same stainless-steel tanks used for fermentation.
