Nose
To the nose its shows intense aromas of yellow pulp fruit, citrus notes with delicate vanilla scents.
Palate
The mouth is round, velvety, fresh and long lasting. Complex wine with distinct personality and keen mineral notes that can be savored after many years in the bottle.
Growing Conditions
Production area: Tuscany
The growing season 2014/2015 was quite regular without extreme events and full ripeness was reached 10 days earlier. These are the prerequisites of a great harvest in terms of quality and quantity.
Harvest
As usual, the harvest began with Chardonnay on August 31. The grapes were perfectly ripe and healthy. The Sauvignon Blanc was harvested immediately after.
Winemaking
The rare elegance of this wine is the result of an unusual fusion of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. After nine months’ barrel aging, the Chardonnay is blended with the Sauvignon Blanc fresh from aging in stainless steel. The result is a complex wine with a distinct personality and keen mineral notes that can be savored even after many years in the bottle.
Cold maceration at 5°C for few hours without oxygen. Fermentation in stainless steel at 12°C -16°C (53.6°-60.8°F).
Aging
9 months of aging in wood with skin contact for Chardonnay and 9 months in stainless steel for Sauvignon Blanc.
Appearance
Straw yellow in color.
