A blend of 80% Fiano, 12% Asprino, 3% Pallagrello Bianco and 5% other white grapes. Ferments in stainless steel vats and ages in 500-liter tonneau barrels and used barriques for around 12 months before aging a further eight months in the bottle. The wine has a golden, straw-yellow color and a lovely, complex aroma of acacia, eucalyptus, hazelnut and smoky nuances as well as notes of apricot, chamomile and citronella. The mouthfeel is full, wrapping and saline with an excellent acidic tension and an extraordinary persistence.
At present only 412 bottles have been produced.
