Obtained from grape of Pinot Grigio at Dogliani, a singular white wine, vinified using the Burgundy method, with fermentation and batonnage in wood contenitors for several months, followed by a long period of bottle ageing.
It has a straw yellow colour, a bouquet of citrus and topical fruit with mineral notes, a great structure and a notable capacity for ageing.
The annual production very limited, only few thousand bottles.

The wine making
Pressing and subsequent cold decanting in steel tanks (9°C). Fermentation starts in steel, then the must is transferred immediately to wood contenitors, where it completes its alcoholic and malo-lactic fermentation, and undergoes batonnage. The wine ages for several months in bottle before being released into the market.
