About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The Chardonnay is selected from mountain vineyards at 400–600 metres above sea level on the hills of Pressano and in the Cembra Valley. The soils comprise porphyritic-volcanic formations of varied origins, red marl around Pressano, sandy loam in the Cembra Valley and medium-textured soils elsewhere, all originating from morainic deposits.
Grapes
100% Chardonnay. Vintage 2020.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand at full ripeness between late August and the first days of September. Primary fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks at controlled temperature. The base wine matures for eight months on its lees in stainless steel with frequent bâtonnage. Second fermentation takes place in bottle, with tirage in May following the harvest.
Ageing
The wine remains on selected lees for 60 months.
