The sole white wine of the estate is produced in the Roero district from an 0.80 hectare plot in Vezza d’Alba. The soil is essentially sandy in composition and sits at 340 meters altitude on south-facing slopes. The vineyard was planted in 1980. Harvest (manual) normally occurs in mid-September. The grapes are briefly macerated and the fermentation occurs at controlled temperatures (around 15 degrees Celsius) for two to three weeks. The wine rests in stainless steel until the early spring months of the following year and is usually released to the market, after several months of bottle aging, in late summer/early fall.
Aroma: Likely aromas of ripe pear, apple, and hints of citrus, along with floral notes and perhaps a touch of almond or hazelnut.
Flavor: The palate should be crisp and refreshing with bright acidity, flavors of stone fruit and citrus, and a slightly nutty finish.
