From the vinification of this sensational 100% pure Pinot Grigio grape. Pinot Gris is one of the most important vines cultivated in the Collio since the second half of 1800 and is today one of the most common white berried varieties of the region. Its origins lie in the municipalities of Farra d'Isonzo, San Floriano and Cormòns, in the Collio DOC area, at an altitude of 80 m, 250 m and 80 m above sea level respectively. The vinification and fermentation after harvesting the grapes are separated from the stalk. The juice and pulp undergo a cold maceration, then a slight pressing that allows the separation from the skins. It is then fermented in steel tanks. The wine is left to rest for about six months on the lees and a few months in the bottle. The aging of the wine requires that it is left to rest about six months on the lees and a few months in the bottle.
