About this wine
Grapes
A blend of Trebbiano, Chardonnay, Traminer, Sauvignon Blanc and Malvasia.
Vinification

Ageing
The wine matures on its full lees, with periodic bâtonnage carried out as required. Bottling takes place approximately 10–12 months after harvest.
Technical data
Production is approximately 1,000 bottles. The wine is usually made without added sulphites.
