Vineyard
The fields of the Estate, in the municipality of Buttrio (Udine).
The soil is predominantly marly-clayey.

Vinification
White wine fermentation with soft pressing of the grapes
following alcoholic fermentation a controlled temperature
(18°C) to encourage the development of intense aromas.

Ageing
In stainless steel tanks to prevent the wine from clouding
and continuously disturbing the fine lees. The wine
remains “sur lies” until bottling. Maturation continues in
the bottle for at least three months.
Appearance
Bright straw-yellow colour with slightly greenish undertones.
Nose
A pleasant aroma that contributes to the elegance of the
variety, suggesting white fleshed fruit, exotic fruits, apple,
white flowers and bread crusts.
Palate
The flavour is full bodied and warm with a reduced acidity
level that contributes to the softness of the wine. The
balance and velvety final taste are excellent. A wine that,
with every sip, gives off pleasant and lasting sensation
with a nicely mineral and lasting aftertaste.
Food pairing
Excellent served as an aperitif or with light hours d’oeuvres. This wine pairs perfectly with first course pastas or
soups, seafood-based dishes and soft cheeses.
Longevity
Reaches maximum expression of the vine in the first two
years and can easily exceed four years in the bottle.

Service
This wine is best served chilled (12°C).
