About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes come from Castelvecchio in the Gorizia Karst, near Sagrado. The terrain is arid and rocky, with a shallow layer of red earth rich in iron and limestone. Constant ventilation and the influence of the nearby sea shape the site.

Grapes

100% Malvasia.

Vinification

The grapes are selected by hand and gently pressed before alcoholic fermentation.

Ageing

Maturation takes place sur lie. The product page identifies concrete tanks, whereas the technical sheet identifies steel tanks.

Technical data

DOC Carso. Organic wine. Bottle format: 750 ml.

Tasting profile

Intense straw yellow with golden reflections. The nose is elegant and concentrated, combining floral notes with pear and a mineral character. The palate mirrors the aromas, with lively freshness, a savoury and lightly peppery impression, pronounced minerality, intensity and persistence. Bottle maturation tends to deepen the straw colour.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 10–12°C. Pair with vegetable or seafood first courses and grilled fish.
