About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Passerina grapes grow on clay soils in the Marche region, at 250–300 m above sea level.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested early in the morning in mid-October and placed in small crates. The crates are held in cold storage before transport to the winery. After sorting, the selected grapes are gently pressed and undergo cold maceration, followed by fermentation in stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 13–15 °C.

Ageing

The wine rests in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks at approximately 10 °C until February of the year after the harvest.

Tasting profile

Fresh and fruity, with bright, crisp acidity.
