Production
The Pinot Grigio grapes are sourced from estate-owned, south and south-east facing, vineyards in Casteggio and Calvignano at around 300 metres altitude. Soils here are a combination of silt, clay and chalk and the Guyot-trained vines are of average age 15 years. After hand-harvesting, the grapes undergo a delicate cold maceration on the skins to give the natural pale rosé colour of the wine. Alcoholic fermentation takes place at 17°C and the wine is kept on fine lees for at least four months before bottling.
Tasting notes
Aromas of red berry and pomegranate fruit with a hint of peach. The palate is elegant with juicy raspberry and cranberry fruit and fresh acidity balanced by lightly creamy notes.
Food match
