About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes come from the producer’s oldest vineyard, in the hills of Volpago del Montello, north of Treviso. Farmed organically, the vineyard has vines more than 30 years old rooted in red, iron-rich soils.

Grapes

The wine is made from selected Glera grapes.

Vinification

The grapes are usually harvested by hand from mid to late September, at optimal ripeness. They macerate on their skins for 15–18 hours before fermenting with natural yeasts in temperature-controlled steel tanks. A second fermentation then takes place in the bottle according to the traditional method.

Ageing

The wine rests on its lees in the bottle for 3–4 months. It is not disgorged, leaving a natural yeast sediment in the bottle.

Tasting profile

The wine has a rich aroma and an elegant taste that expresses its local terroir.

Serving and pairing

Before opening, the producer recommends slowly turning the bottle upside down two or three times.
