About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Malvasia is organically grown on 8.5 ha of hillside vineyards in the province of Vicenza, Veneto. The vineyards form part of an old estate formerly owned by the aristocratic Giovannelli family. The soils are predominantly clay and limestone, with a high mineral content.

Vinification

The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and vinified as whole bunches with minimal intervention. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless-steel tanks using native yeasts.

Ageing

The wine rests for several months before being lightly filtered and bottled with no more than 50 mg/L of added sulfur.

Tasting profile

Bright in character.
