Wine maker notes

Flash-pasteurized using an in-line procedure, which heats the juice for a few seconds prior to fermentation. Fermentation proceeds very slowly over one month at cool temperatures, ensuring that the aromas are retained in the fermenting wine.

Food pairing

Drink as an aperitif or with chicken, fish and Italian dishes and creamy cheeses. Best served well chilled and store lying down in a cool, dark place.
