THE GRAPES AND THE VINEYARD
The hills around Orvieto have always been considered particularly suited to the production of high-quality white wines. In this sense, those surrounding our cellar in Montecchio are no exception. Pinot Bianco, Semillon and Grechetto are three grapes that represent both the bond with tradition and our never-satisfied desire to experiment. The soils are different, calcareous where we have Pinot Bianco, a little looser where Semillon is, more clayey where Grechetto is.
VINIFICATION:
The grapes are harvested by hand according to their different ripening periods. First the Pinot Bianco is harvested and cooled and cryomacerated for five hours at 10°C. Then the Semillon is harvested and vinified in reduction, and finally the Grechetto which is processed with white vinification. The musts ferment separately in stainless steel at a temperature of 13-15°C for about 12-14 days. The wines are then refined
always in steel on its lees for at least 6 months.
