Tasting Notes
Pale straw yellow with greenish tinges, it opens on the nose fresh and persistent, revealing hints of green apple, apricot, lime, and almonds.
Cultivation
Hand-harvested, starting in early September.
Vinification
After destemming and cooling to 10–12°C, the grapes undergo 10–12 hours of cold maceration, followed by soft pressing at 1 atm and 12 hours of natural decantation. Fermentation then takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 15–16°C with selected yeast inoculation over 15–16 days.
Aging
Aged for 2-3 months on the lees in stainless steel.
