The grapes were harvested by hand and gently pressed in a pneumatic press. With the use of specially selected yeasts the vinification took place in modern stainless steel tanks with the temperature of fermentation controlled below 20° C. For the following 7 months the wine was left in contact with the fine lees. The wine has not gone through malolactic fermentation, in the effort to retain the original fruit aromas.

Brilliant straw yellow color. Aromas of banana and peach pulp with hints of yellow flowers. Full bodied on the palate with a fragrant tropical fruitiness. The pronounced acid structure cleanses the palate and has a long finish. It is a wine with great balance.
