  • Only the free run juice is used for this Greco. The must is fermented with great care in temp-controlled stainless steel tanks using only indigenous yeasts. The wine then rests for 6 months to give complexity & structure. The malolactic transformation occurs partially, depending on the natural acidity of the harvest. Before being bottled, the wine is lightly filtered & stored at cellar temperature until it is judged to be ready for the market.

  • Straw yellow color with delicate golden reflections. On the nose, yellow peach and apricot, flint & orange blossom, with notes of Mediterranean scrubs. When it opens, aromas of lime & lemon emerge. On the palate it is an intense, fresh & savory wine, with a refreshing notes of citrus fruit. The taste persists for a long time, leaving exquisite notes of almond, eucalyptus and lemon zest.
