Winemaking Notes: Harvest takes place on the third week of September, when the grape is fully ripe. The skins are mixed with the must for a short time to undergo a quick light skin maceration process at a temperature of 15-18 degrees Celsius for around 11 hours. This facilitates the gradual extraction of the noble components of the skin, a process that will determine the taste of the wine. Gentle pressing and the must juice is chilled at a temperature of 8 degrees Celsius and decanted for about 11 hours. Selected yeasts are added to the clear must that is obtained, which is lead to ferment at a temperature of 16 degrees Celsius. Wine is stored over lees in steel tanks for three months. Each phase of the vinification follows the strictest codes of organic wine production.
Tasting Notes: A light shade of straw yellow. A notably intricate scent, fresh and intense, with hints of ripe exotic fruit. Harmonic, soft and round, full-bodied with a consistent taste. Best enjoyed with sea food appetizers, light main courses, fish dishes or light cheese. Alternatively it is a perfect aperitif.
