Wine description

The prestigious white wine Dragone Bianco IGT is a product of the Lento cellar produced by Greco, Malvasia and Trebbiano grapes to create an elegant and soft wine in all its features. All the vines are cultivated at 250 meters above the sea level. The production grounds have calcareous origins mixed with clay grounds. The coat of the grounds are thin and deep which is a typical characteristic of the Calabria territories especially in the province of Reggio Calabria and at the end of Southern Apennines. The harvest is hand-made, as tradition and then once the grapes arrive in the cellar they are slightly pressed. It follows a clearing of the must and the cold static settling. It follows the fermentation with the addition of selected yeasts. The whole process lasts 25 days under temperature control at 18°C.
