VARIETAL COMPOSITION
White blend from aromatic local grapes.
VINEYARD LOCATION
South Sardinia.
CLIMATE
Mediterranean: mild winters and hot summers with low rainfall.
SOIL TYPE
Clay with limestone deposits.
PLANTING DENSITY AND TRELLISING/TRAINING SYSTEM
Approximately 5,000 vines per hectare, vertical trellis, Guyot pruning.
HARVESTING
New shoots coming out from the fruit-bearing cane are trimmed
at the end of August. Harvesting is by hand and is done several times
from the end of August to 10th September to pick selected grapes
as they reach the desired ripeness level.
GRAPE DRYING PROCESS
The grapes turn from golden to amber until they take on a tawny or sometimes black color. When subject to controlled noble rot, the grapes will display light-blue hues. From a sugar content of 20° Babo, the grapes reach sugar concentrations of 32°-34° Babo. The resulting blend of overripeto raisined grapes will impart the typical Mediterranean avors to this driedgrape wine.
WINEMAKING
Once the grapes are crushed and destemmed, they undergo maceration and initial fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 60 °F (16 °C) before going into a manual press. The juice undergoes a very slow fermentation until
the process stops on its own, leaving the wine with a high concentration
of residual sugar.
MATURATION/AGING
8 months in stainless steel.
APPEARANCE
Deep amber in color.
AROMAS
On the nose the wine expresses a pleasant mixture of honey character,dried white owers and nuttiness.
PALATE
Sweet undertones combine with resonating notes of candied orange andapricot jam. The palate nishes fresh and clean with a lingering aftertaste.FOOD PAIRING
