Tasting Notes

A fine example of Umbria winemaking, this Orvieto DOC reflects generations of local expertise. Its modest 11.5% alcohol content favours freshness and drinkability. Crafted from Grechetto, Trebbiano Procanico, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The fruit is sourced from vineyards in the area of Lago di Corbara, on land of volcanic origin and background of limestone and clay. Vinification: utilizzo di uve vendemmiate solo quando i grappoli mostrano i segni evidenti della Muffa Nobile, la Botrytis Cinerea, che si forma grazie alla nebbia che avvolge le vigne dell'Orvieto Classico durante le mattine d'autunno e che regala note aromatiche e gu. The wine is aged in steel tanks followed by aging in bottle. A wine true to Umbria's centuries-old winemaking heritage.
