About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Cortese grapes come from the producer's own vineyards in the Gavi region.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested only when they reach optimal ripeness, then gently pressed at the winery. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 14 °C for 20 days.

Ageing

The wine rests on its fine lees for 8 months, then spends 6 months in bottle in the winery's cellars.
