Years of experience have shown that white wines produced in this way, with their expressive structure, which is not lost after maturing in the bottle for some years, should gain in expressive elegance laced with a marvellously pleasant minerality.
The wines that we denominate as Classic wines - Sauvignonasse, Ribolla, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay - are carefully produced, but are not among the demanding wines originating from our younger vineyards. After maturating in stainless steel barrels, the wines sur lie on yeast up to 8 months. This makes them not so classically fresh, as they lose some of the basic variety aroma and gain a complex, rich and extraordinarily elegant body. Despite their dryness, they highlight freshness and minerality which means they can be drunk on all kinds of occasions… After a glass, their aftertaste makes us think about food. Years of experience have shown that white wines produced in this way, with their expressive structure, which is not lost after maturing in the bottle for some years, should gain in expressive elegance laced with a marvellously pleasant minerality. So you can keep these wines, and enjoy following their development for up to ten years.
