Description
"Conscious of Garganega’s excellent propensity for aging, we selected some of our outstanding vineyards on the Foscarino hill, with the idea of dedicating even greater attention to these grapes and allowing this wine to undergo a longer maturation, so that it acquired greater intensity while maintaining freshness and balance. After 6 months’ maturation in barriques, the wine remains on its fine lees in horizontal stainless-steel tanks for 5 years." - Producer Notes
"Very pretty yellow color with aromas of dried lemons, apples and blossom honey. Some apricots. Hints of caramel. Full-bodied with a honeyed character and light creme caramel, pears and apples in the finish. Fresh acidity with a creamy texture. Fascinating aged white flavors. Fermented and aged six months in old barrels and then seven years on the lees. From the best batch of the best parcels of Foscarino." - James Suckling
