About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are selected fruit from the estate's own vineyards in the Adige Valley, at the foot of the Dolomites. The variety forms compact bunches of very sweet, grey-blue berries.

Vinification

The grapes are processed by a traditional method that includes a brief cold contact with the skins, which brings out the varietal aromas and adds depth to the palate. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a low temperature of 18 to 20 °C.

Ageing

The wine is aged further after fermentation, which gives it a delicate structure and a characteristic mineral quality. The text gives no vessel or duration.

Tasting profile

Elegant, with a gentle freshness. The varietal aromas are rich, the palate has depth, and the structure is delicate with a mineral character.

Label / history

Every batch undergoes a mandatory expert tasting before release, as the DOC rules require.
