About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow on clay-limestone soils in Piedmont.

Grapes

Chardonnay makes up 85% of the blend and Sauvignon Blanc 15%.

Vinification

Harvest takes place in late September. In the winery the grapes undergo white skin-contact maceration, with extended contact with their own yeasts. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine ages in stainless steel tanks for 6–8 months, following fermentation in the same vessels.
