Nose
Heady scents of white-fleshed fruit, especially pear and ripe apple, with floral and citrus notes.
Palate
Dynamic and energetic on the palate, an aromatic symphony with freshness as the conductor and a savoury tang as accompaniment. Notes of tropical fruit provide a final flourish.
Growing Conditions
Production zone: Medium-low hillsides along the valley of Val
d’Adige and Oltradige.
Soil Type: Mixed origin, predominantly limestone with
good skeleton and presence of clay.
Training system: Part pergola, part espalier, Guyot pruned.
Harvest
The fully ripe grapes are harvested by hand.
Winemaking
Grapes undergo gentle softpressing to prevent the must taking on this variety’s copper-toned pigments. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 64°F. After initial racking the wine rests on its lees to develop body and great balance.
Appearance
The wine is a bright straw yellow colour.
Food Pairing
An excellent aperitif but also a very versatile companion to many different foods: seafood starters, fish dishes, flavoursome soups and white meats. A must-try with exotic, hot and spicy cuisine.
