100% Chardonnay vines situated on the hillside between the Bricco Boschis and the Vignolo crus.
Characteristics of the wine
Vinification: Low-pressure, very gentle whole berry pneumatic pressing before fermentation. Fermentation controlled at 16°-18°C for 45 days under slight pressure in stainless steel autoclaves.
Ageing: The wine is aged sûr lie for 9 months in the steel autoclave with daily batonnage.
Bottle Ageing: 6 months before release into the market.
Organoleptic Characteristics: Well-structured with excellent minerality and aromas of tropical fruits and, after some ageing, floral elements. Even though it is designed to be a fresh wine when young, it has good aging potential.
Gastronomic Accompaniment: Excellent as an aperitif, with light or medium rich plates in general. Also good with white meat, raw meats (like tartare or carpaccio) and fatty cuts such as salt pork. Excellent with seafood in general and shellfish grilled or raw. Also pairs well with fresh cheeses.
