About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are grown on limestone and marl soils in a climate that is not excessively hot. These conditions encourage the high acidity typical of Cortese.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness. Traditional dry-white-wine vinification is used, with care taken to preserve their acidity.

Serving and pairing

Suitable as an aperitif or with fish and seafood.
