Pinot Bianco Sirmian grows on the southern slopes above Nalles. It has aromas apple, citruses and pineapple which make the wine full and elegant. On the palate it has lively acidity and is harmonious on the finish.
This elegant and fruity Chardonnay is cultivated on clayey and calcareous grounds. The fermentation takes place in durmast barrels through the malolactic process. After that, the wine is left to mature for 11 months. Ripe fruits fragrances together with the full-bodied taste, the well-balanced structure and the pleasant perfume, are the characteristics of this wine.
Brilliant, gold yellow colour with a green shimmer. Very rich, complex, still quite closed aroma. Burgundian style with a delicate creaminess, some toasty oak and ripe tropical fruit. Touches of vanilla and roasted almonds. Quite rich, well-structured though elegant flavour, harmonious, with a pungent, fresh acidity to match the depth of the fruit and the oaky backbone.
