Description

It is a lively brut, rich in fragrance, which prefers smoothness and an accessible sensory language, a balanced and versatile style. It is mainly produced with Chardonnay grapes and with Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco grapes, harvested between the end of August and the beginning of September. The grapes undergo a soft pressing and ferment in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for 20 days. Subsequently the wine is aged for 7 months in stainless steel tanks and partly in barrique before being bottled.

Tasting Notes

In the glass it has a straw yellow color with greenish reflections, animated by a fine and persistent perlage. The nose is fresh, with floral notes of lime, hints of citrus, white peach and green pepper. The mouth is taut and crunchy, fresh and vertical, savory, refined and with a very pleasant persistent finish.
