Grape variety

Area of production
Marche, Castelli di Jesi

After a light pressing, the prime must is rapidly cooled and then goes through static decantation. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in steel tanks with the temperature maintained at between 14° and 16°C, and continues for about 8-10 days. The wine does not subsequently undergo a malolactic fermentation. All stages of production, from picking to bottling, are carried out in the absence of oxygen, in order to safeguard the primary aromas of the grapes and achieve greater freshness of flavour and bouquet. A brief ageing period in steel of about three months follows.

Tasting notes
Soft aromatics of lemon, green apple and a hint of grated raw brazil nut. Dry, medium bodied with lovely balanced flavours of preserved lemon peel, pear and nut. A wine that can be enjoyed on its own, but will go well with spinach and feta pasta bake, or mussel curry.
