Winery Overview
Set up in 2003, Adria Vini is a winemaking venture jointly owned by Boutinot and Araldica Vini Piemontesi, the leading co-operative in Piemonte. All areas of production, from grape selection through to vinification, maturation, blending and bottling are meticulously overseen by Araldica’s Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese. Working closely with growers and cooperatives, their aim is to produce a range of authentic, well-priced wines from local grape varieties. The mainstay of white wine production is Pinot Grigio, sourced from the Pavia region south of Milan, Friuli and the Veneto. The reds come from mature, low yielding vineyards in Puglia, the source of some of Europe’s most undervalued and characterful wines.

Viticulture
All areas of production, from grape selection through to vinification, maturation, blending and bottling are meticulously overseen by Araldica’s Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese.
Vinification
The grapes were hand harvested during the first 2 weeks of September. The grapes were crushed and gently pressed, and the juice was allowed to settle and clarify before cool fermentation via selected yeast at 16 to 18C in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.
Tasting Notes
A fresh dry white with gentle floral and citrus aromas. Crisp and delicate on the palate with orchard fruit and lightly honeyed notes, balanced by lemony acidity and a fresh, dry finish.
