Vineyard Management, Vinification & Ageing: Careful and rigorous selection of the grapes in the field followed by a soft pressing of the whole bunches and a cold static settling for 3 days. With the same grapes, a starter without added yeasts is prepared which is then combined with the decanted must to start a spontaneous fermentation at 18 ° C that runs slowly even over 30 days. The wine is aged on its fine fine lees for at least 9 months and decanted twice before bottling. Finally, it is left to rest in the bottle for a further 24 months in a natural cave to be ready for marketing.
Awards & Tasting Notes
2020
Decanter Wold Wine Awards – – 90 Points – Silver Award – “Interesting and different profile, white peach, lemon, floral and herbal nose, with good purity on the palate, creamy texture and long finish.”
2022
Delicate lemony aroma, with a touch of lemon cream. On the day after opening, it becomes more expressive, with additional notes of crisp apple, fresh almonds and crushed stones. Light-bodied yet with excellent purity and tension and a dry stony finish. Not especially long but made with a light touch to reveal the finesse of this rare variety. Drink 2022-2025 – (JH) Jancis Robinson Wines 16.5
Intense yellow with a buttercup-yellow tinge. Compelling, cool, concentrated quince, reine-claude, dried-orange notes and freshly peeled pear with a hint of brioche and white vermouth. Slowly unfurls on the palate with shy notes of orange interwoven with gossamer-like acidity. Great focus but takes its time and closes up. Minerally, salty orange notes on the finish. Much weightier on the palate than its 12%. Drink 2023-2032 (WS) – Jancis Robinson Wines 17++
Color: Straw yellow with greenish reflections, bright and clear Fruity: Pear, golden apple, citrus (citron)
Floral: Mimosa, wisteria
Vegetable: Fresh hay
Minerality: Limestone on a bed of flint
Aromatic herbs: Oregano, thyme, peppermint
Spicy: nuances of ginger
Taste: Dry, warm, with contained but smooth and subtle acidity, the good closing of the mouth leaves a persistent and elegant mineral aftertaste.
It can continue its rest in the bottle even if it is already pleasant for the nose and palate. (First note of slight reduction, when the glass is shaken it disappears and gives way to odorous hints) – Amedeo Barbato – Enologist
