Tasting notes
Brilliant straw-yellow colour. Refined, quite pronounced, fresh nose with aromatical notes of ripe yellow fruit (melon), citrus, floral and mineral nuances, with a hint of almond. Medium- bodied on the palate, is has good intensity and crisp acidity. Well-balanced, elegant, with good complexity and a lingering aftertaste with a distinct hint of salinity.
Vinification
Hand-picked, the grapes were destemmed and then gently pressed. This is followed by the alcoholic fermentation that takes place in stainless steel tanks, very slowly at a temperature ranging from 14 to 16 °C, to preserve the freshness and intensity of the fruit aromas and flavours in the wine. Halfway through alcoholic fermentation the tank is sealed to reabsorb a small quantity of natural CO2. The wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation.
Ageing
In stainless steel tanks on its fine lees until bottling.
Food pairing
As an aperitif with light hors d’oeuvres, vegetables, raw fish, salads, light soups, simple veal, pork and chicken dishes and creamy cheese.
