Nose
The bouquet is redolent of pear and pineapple, backed by a subtle herbaceousness, which expand steadily in a harmonious, almost stately fashion.
Palate
In the mouth, standing out from the rest of the components is a crisp acidity that complements the rich body and natural suppleness, as well as its overall cleanness and aromatic finish, all of which combine to craft a delicious wine of immediate pleasure.
Growing Conditions
Grapes: 100% Pinot Grigio Location: Treviso-area hills near the left bank of the Piave river Aspect: south Soils: medium textured
Harvest
Yield per hectare: 100 quintals Harvest period: August 25 - September 10
Winemaking
Vinification: after the clusters are given a very delicate pressing, the must is gravity settled, then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 20°C. The wine then matures on the fine lees before bottling. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology and expert winemaking, only a minimum level of sulphites are used in production, well below Europen OCM standards.
Aging
Maturation: 1 months in the bottle.
Appearance
The wine appears a straw yellow with pale coppery highlights,, thanks to its distinctively delicious qualities and lively, crisp fruit, which magisterially enrich a wide range of foods.
Food Pairing
Its crispness and sapidity make this wine the ideal pairing to seafood salads and to fish and shellfish first courses, while it heightens the qualities of full-flavoured soups and grilled and poached fish. A must-try with soufflés and eggs dishes.
