- The wine has fruity aromas of apple and acacia blossom, leading to a lively, fresh, and fruity palate with delicate bubbles. The grapes were vinified organically, carefully selected, destemmed, and gently pressed horizontally to obtain the must. The juice underwent a slow, temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 18°C, reducing to 14°C, with selected yeasts. The wine then underwent secondary fermentation in pressurized tanks using the Charmat method, resulting in the gently sparkling wine. It was then aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and pure fruit aromatics.

Winery | The grapes for this wine come from Tarzo in the DOCG Valdobbiadene area. Located in the foothills, cooling hillside breezes combine with warm sunshine, creating the perfect microclimate for the Glera variety. The wide diurnal temperature range delivers warm, sunny days and cool nights, encouraging the production of balanced, complex and aromatic grapes. Rainfall occurs mainly in spring, replenishing the soil's water reserves to nourish the vines throughout the warm summer growth period. The soils of Conegliano Valdobbiadene have very ancient origins, deriving from raised sea and lake beds. Part of the area was influenced by the ancient glaciers of the Dolomites, which carried sediments downhill, resulting in deep, rocky and sandy soils rich in clay and iron oxides. In the remaining area, unaffected by the glaciers, the soils are marine, with shallower marl and sandstone soils. The vines are Guyot-trained, and the grapes for this wine are organic. |
