About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards have a warm Mediterranean climate and mineral-rich soils.

Grapes

A small proportion of Sauvignon Blanc complements the Vermentino in the blend.

Vinification

Sixty per cent of the harvest is pressed and fermented in stainless-steel tanks at 16 °C for 15 days. The remaining 40% ferments on the skins for 15 days.

Ageing

The skin-fermented portion rests for two months. After blending, the wine matures on its lees in stainless-steel tanks for five months.

Tasting profile

Fresh and softly textured, with bright acidity and a well-structured, lingering palate.
