SPEC | Vintage 2023

▸ A vine crossing named after Professor Luigi Manzoni born from the union between Riesling and Pinot Blanc. From its parents Manzoni bianco inherited the advantages of both: good body, aromaticity, longevity and an adaptability to various vineyard soils and climate conditions. The resulting wine has an intense aroma of white flowers and fruit with a hint of spicy notes. ▸ After a few years of aging in bottle, it shows typical aromas in a manner similar to an aged Riesling and, like Riesling, it is an early to mid-ripening grape variety. ▸ Maceration for a few days until the cap forms, fermentation in steel tank and large acacia barrels. ▸ Aged on fine lees in large acacia barrels for 9 months.

Food pairingsPerfect to pair with seafood, light pasta dishes, or as an aperitif. It is a well-balanced and versatile wine that showcases the unique character of the region.
