- The wine is deep golden in colour and has aromatic notes of acacia flowers, citrus, and ripe yellow fruits. It has a creamy and velvety texture on the palate, with a refreshing finish. The grapes were gently pressed to extract the juice and then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the perfumed aromatic qualities of the Nascetta variety. After fermentation, the wine was aged for six months in used French oak on its fine lees with 'bâtonnage' or lees stirring, which gave the wine a fuller texture.

| Winery | The Nascetta grapes are grown in a single-hectare vineyard in Novello, in the Ghercina area, where this variety originated. This perfumed variety is relatively low-yielding but produces high-quality grapes with concentrated flavours. The grapes for this wine were grown on the banks of a small lake, which provides a unique microclimate in which this variety flourishes. The vines are manually harvested when the grapes have reached optimum maturity levels. Established in 1871, San Silvestro has produced DOC and DOCG wines from its estate winery in the Commune of Novello in Piedmont. The traditional varieties are mostly grown in the Langhe and from vineyards in the Roero and the Monferrato regions. Founded by Giovanni Sartirano, San Silvestro has been passed down through four generations, and today, it is run by cousins Paolo and Guido Sartirano. Following the family traditions and ethos, they hold the Equalitas certification for their sustainably cultivated vineyards and produce modern wines that express the Piedmont region's traditional varieties and distinctive terroir. Over the years, San Silvestro has gradually expanded beyond the local market, and their award-winning wines are internationally recognised. |
