In the glass, it reveals a fascinating blend, ready to unveil its heady sensual perfume and harmonious fragrance.

Grape blend
Trebbiano and Viognier

Alcohol content
13% vol.

Training system
Guyot

Harvesting and vinification
The two varieties are harvested separately by hand, at different times in September. Once de-stemmed, the grapes are immediately cooled with dry ice and gently pressed. After a few hours in contact with the skins, the flower must obtained from Viognier is transferred to French oak barrels to carry out alcoholic fermentation and subsequent ageing on its lees. The Trebbiano must juice, on the other hand, is fermented in stainless steel tanks with controlled temperatures. A selection of the best Trebbiano grapes is allowed to dry for a few months, after which it is pressed and left to ferment in French oak barrels. After roughly six months of separate fermentation, the two varieties are mixed, undergo a light filtration, and are bottled.

Production
1,500 bottles of 0.75 L

Organoleptic characteristics
Italobianco flouts a brilliant straw yellow colour with greenish reflections. On the nose it stands out for its freshness, as the delicate floral notes of Trebbiano blend with Viognier’s fruity ripe apricot aromas. The ageing in wood yields pleasant notes of sweet almond and vanilla. On the palate, the freshness and fragrance of Trebbiano marries with the softness of Viognier: the result is perfectly balanced and persistent.

Gastronomic combinations
An ideal accompaniment to dishes based on shellfish and crustaceans, it also serves as an outstanding aperitif. Perfect with Tuscan panzanella. Taste at 8-12 °C.
