Food Matching Note:
Almond-crusted chicken breasts stuffed with dried apricots and cherries, angel hair pasta with smoked salmon in tomato-herb sauce or baked brie with fresh herbs and dried tomato pesto.
Tasting Note:
Bright and coral in colour, rich on the nose, opulent, floral with fine fruit. On the palate it is dry, harmonious, rich and elegant with a pleasantly dry aftertaste.
Vinification Note:
Climate: Mediterranean with low rainfall, ranging between 300 and 700 mm annually. Ripening takes place slowly due to the striking contrast between day and night-time temperatures, resulting in a strong development of aromas, richness and concentration.
Soils: For the most part calcareous, though also clay, medium rich and of various compositions (generally low in fertility).
Mainly even countryside at elevations between 40 and 80 metres above sea level.
Training systems: Alberello Pugliese (low densely planted bush-like vines without supporting wires) for local varieties, spur pruned wire frame training for international varieties.
Vine density: Approx. 4,500 per hectare.
Harvest period: From mid September to late October.
