Main Characteristics
Forever one of the most elegant wines, with its straw-yellow colour and green reflections, immediately flowery and fresh to the nose.
The vines have been growing for 60 years on a gravelly soil and this makes it flavourful and gives it that delicate acidity that makes it very persistent.
Drinking it, its freshness together with the complexity of aromas and tastes, one has the impression of standing on the banks of a river.
Wine-making and Bottling
The grapes are made into white wine through de-stemming and immediate pressing. Alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature. Matured in steel. Followed by bottling and ageing in the bottle for 5 months at the end of spring.
