About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow on gravel soils in the Isonzo del Friuli area. Organic vineyard methods are used to preserve the variety’s character.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested entirely by hand in the third week of September. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 21 °C. Puiatti ferments its wines only in steel, cement or ceramic tanks.

Ageing

The wine matures in stainless-steel tanks. Puiatti does not use oak barrels; across the range, ageing takes place only in steel, cement or ceramic vessels.

Tasting profile

The 2013 vintage is bright and clean, with a refined, elegant style.

Serving and pairing

Suitable as an aperitif and with fish or seafood.

Label / history

Vittorio Puiatti and his son Giovanni approached winemaking from an environmental perspective as well as a commercial and personal one. Puiatti is now part of Tenimenti Angelini.
