A novelty this year, a Trentino native working with Vernaccia who has finally taken over the family estate with a very positive start.
Made from Vernaccia with 70% matured in stainless steel and 30% in barriques sitting five months on the lees. The wine has a slightly pale straw color and a shy yet clean aroma with citrus notes of lime and Valencia orange along with a fresh balsamic hint. The convincing mouthfeel is progressive and juicy and not at all boring thanks to a nice salty and acidic touch that ushers in a flavorful finish.
