Tasting Notes
This straw-yellow wine has a slightly golden hue. Its delicate yet distinct bouquet reveals fragrant notes of green apple, lemon, toast, honey and white-fleshed fruit. On the palate, it's dry and refreshing, with a pleasant, savory mineral finish.

Vinification and Aging
The Nebbiolo grapes are hand-picked and gently pressed into white, with immediate separation of the skins to avoid any color extraction in the must. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18°C. After fermentation, the wine is racked and aged on fine lees for several months. This prolonged period on lees enhances aromatic complexity while softening the taste profile, providing a succulent texture on the palate. Aging exclusively in steel tanks, with no exposure to oxygen, encourages the development of tertiary aromas that enrich the wine's complexity and allow it to age gracefully.

Terroir
This wine is produced in an alpine environment and is made from white Nebbiolo grapes. The soil's geological origin lies in the collision of the African and European plates, forming the Alps. This geological diversity gives the wine a distinctive minerality and a particular elegance.
