TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTES:

Sella & Mosca’s 1,600-acre estate, I Piani, constitutes the second largest contiguous vineyard in Italy, covering more than 1,200 acres of vines. It is one of the largest wine estates in Europe. The climate is hot and dry. Inland vineyards cover mountainous terrain of granite, schist, sandstone and limestone soil. The estate is surrounded by landscaped gardens and a profusion of flowering oleanders, maritime pines, palm trees and eucalyptus. The winery features multiple tasting rooms, an expertly designed enoteca and a fascinating exhibit showcasing replicas of archaeological finds unearthed during the building of the estate.

WINEMAKING:

Grapes are manually and mechanically harvested between September and October. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats at a low temperature for twenty days.

In terms of color, delicate straw gold with golden tones. Notably fragrant on the nose with primary fruit aromas. Complex and persistent, and very elegant. Fresh, crisp and flavorful, with a naturally assertive and pleasing acidity. Sensational with shellfish and seafood dishes.
