The bunches were immediately chilled to 5° C before being transferred to the winery. The grapes were destemmed, crushed, and macerated for eight to 10 hours. Gentle pressing in an oxygen-reductive environment was followed by must clarification in inert vats. Stainless-steel fermentation took place at 14-16°C, lasting 15 to 20 days, and the wine remained on its fine lees for five months, with a further two months in the bottle.

A fresh, mineral wine showing tropical and citrus notes of bergamot complemented by distinctive flinty notes through to a precise and beautifully balanced palate.

The Lugana DOC is greatly influenced by Lake Garda, whose warm breezes contribute to an ideal climate due to its mildness and low diurnal thermal excursions. The local variety, Turbiana, flourishes in this microclimate. The grapes come from two plots within the Lugana DOC, resulting in a wine of complexity and balance. 70% of the fruit comes from a vineyard in Pozzolengo, where the vines are planted on gentle morainic hills at around 100 metres. The soil in this hilly terrain is made up of sandy clay with a good presence of gravel, which imparts bright aromatics and fresh, natural acidity. The remaining 30% comes from the flat vineyards in Desenzano, where the soil is made up of sedimentary clay, mostly of calcareous origin and is rich in minerals. These grapes imbue the wine with structure and distinctive minerality. The Guyot-trained vines are planted at a density of 5,000 vines per hectare, and the entire estate is cultivated sustainably and is certified for its biodiversity-friendly criteria.
