Selected grapes
A harmonious accord, the gift of the wise union of two grape varieties, Fiano and Chardonnay. In the very early hours of dawn, patient eyes choose once again, one by one, the most seductive bunches. After a pressing in the absence of oxygen and a low temperature fermentation, the precious wood of French oak barrels cradles this wine for 12 months, giving elegance and depth. Wine with a straw yellow color and iridescent reflections, an elegant bouquet with fruity fragrances but with an intense floral nuance. The sip is long and full of freshness and with a soft, slightly almond finish.
