About this wine

Vinification

After harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented at 14 °C.

Ageing

The wine rests briefly in steel.

Tasting profile

Fresh and easy-drinking, with a balanced combination of fruity and floral notes.

Label / history

The relatively recent “12 e Mezzo” range was developed following research and tastings as an alternative to classic Italian wines. Its name means “twelve and a half” in Italian and refers to the alcohol level. The wine received silver medals at Mundus Vini and the Japan Women’s Wine Awards in 2018.
