Winemaker's comment
Bright yellow wine. Fruity aromas like apple on the nose. On the palate, it presents balanced acidity, with mineral, fruity and elegant notes.
Wine Production
The grapes are picked by hand, taking special care to not break or crush the fruit when transported from the field. The entire bunch of grapes is then pressed to achieve a soft extraction without adding too many phenolic compounds. The juice is then fermented at low temperatures, between 12-14°C, for 15 to 30 days, making sure to maintain the freshness and typicity of the grape.
Ageing Potential
3 years.
Pairing
Pairs well with white meats, especially chicken and fish, like salmon. It also goes very well with meats served with cream sauces, or curry-based dishes.
