About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyard is situated within the Gavi DOCG appellation at an altitude of 300 metres, on mineral-rich marl soils.

Vinification

Healthy, ripe grapes are carefully selected and gently pressed. The resulting must ferments in stainless-steel tanks under continuous temperature control.

Ageing

The wine continues to develop in bottle, gaining greater depth of flavour and aroma.

Tasting profile

Elegant, with ripe, rich fruit and a mineral character.
