About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow in Contarini’s vineyards in Veneto. The Alps shelter the region from cold northerly winds, while the Adriatic Sea lies to the southeast and sends warm breezes inland. The soils are predominantly clay and sandy clay.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and vinified according to the traditional method for dry white wines.

Tasting profile

Pleasant and refreshing, with fresh fruit flavours.

Serving and pairing

Suitable as an aperitif and with fish dishes, light salads, chicken and seafood.
