Terroir: vineyards are planted on the Flysch of Cormòns (ponca), a mineral-rich mix of sandstone and marl with excellent drainage. The gentle Collio hills offer ideal sun exposure and ventilation, promoting slow ripening and contributing to the wine’s elegance and complexity.
Vinification: de-stemmed grapes are macerated for a long time in cooled pneumatic presses, to extract antioxidants from the skin.
Ageing: 6-7 months on the fine lees in large, oval-shaped oak barrels.
Tasting notes: Colour: crystalline, sunflower yellow with greenish tinges. Aroma: fruity, of lemon and banana, fine and elegant, complex of a bouquet of simple flowers. Taste: very delightful, refined, sapid-salty, vivid and delicious flavour of citrus fruit
Temperature of service: store the bottle in a cool, dark place with a stable temperature; serve at 8-10° in Summer and at 12-14° in Winter, in a medium-stemmed glass, just-bloomed tulip shaped
Food Paring: as an aperitif, with delicate raw-fish starters, salmon fillet, salmon trout, fish soup, boiled meats, fermented cheeses, white meats and risotto alla Milanese.
