About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from sunny hills in Veneto.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at full ripeness, crushed and fermented on their skins at 22–26 °C for 8–15 days. The wine is then gently pressed.

Ageing

The wine ages in steel tanks for 8–12 months and reaches its full elegance two years after maturation.

Tasting profile

Elegant in character, with aromas of local aromatic herbs and a warmth associated with the land.
