- This wine is characteristically perfumed with floral notes, layered with ripe fruit, citrus zest, and a pleasantly saline-mineral note on the finish. The grape clusters were carefully selected by hand, then destemmed, crushed, and underwent a cool pre-fermentation maceration. Different portions of the must were selected, followed by static clarification. Fermentation took place with selected yeasts at temperature-controlled conditions of 14°C, lasting for approximately 20 to 25 days. Ageing took place ‘sur lie’ - on the fine lees - with weekly bâtonnage (stirring) to impart texture and complexity, which lasted for three months. The wine was bottled in the March following the harvest.

| Winery | The vines are grown in the Portocannon subzone of DOC Molise in Southern Central Italy. Located at 110 metres above sea level, the vineyard covers 2.5 hectares of medium textured soils in which the Falanghina vines thrive. They were planted in 2007 at a density of 4,200 vines per hectare and are Guyot-trained. The climate is Mediterranean, with warm, dry summers and mild winters. The vineyard is heavily influenced by its proximity to the Adriatic Sea; the coastal winds breeze through the vines, aerating the canopy, keeping the vines healthy, and providing the vineyard with gentle humidity, cooling the vines throughout the hot, dry summers. The vineyard is cultivated sustainably and is working towards the Equalitas certification. Harvesting occurs at the end of September when the fruit has reached optimal ripeness. |
