Made from Nebbiolo grapes cultivated around the town of Barolo in southern Piemonte. These are trained on a low Guyot trellis at a density 4-5,000 vines/ha. The grapes were hand-harvested, de stemmed and then crushed to small fermenters, for around 12 days, with daily pumping-over. This ensures good colour and flavour extraction, but avoids over extraction of the abundant Nebbiolo tannins. The wine was drained off at dryness, and the skins transferred to a small press. After pressing the wine was settled for two days, and then racked to stainless steel tanks for malolactic fermentation. After three years maturation in 50hl Slavonian oak casks it was racked and bottled.

Made from grapes grown in Sicily, this crisp dry wine has all the hallmarks of Pinot Grigio. Citrus fruits on the nose with a refreshing palate of zesty green apple balanced by subtle minerality from Catarratto.

Perfect with roast red meats and mature cheeses.
