Terroir:
The vineyards are situated on the hills overlooking Trento, in the Trentino-Alto Adige region. The soil is calcareous clay, which contributes to the wine’s mineral complexity and longevity. The altitude and microclimate of the Fontanasanta vineyards provide ideal conditions for growing Manzoni Bianco.
Viticulture:
The estate practices biodynamic and organic viticulture, emphasizing sustainable farming methods. The vines are meticulously managed to ensure the health of the vineyard and the quality of the grapes. The grapes are harvested late in September to achieve optimal ripeness.
Winemaking:
The Manzoni Bianco grapes are fermented on the skins in cement tanks, followed by seven months of aging in acacia casks. This method allows the wine to develop its full character and complexity, preserving the natural flavors and aromas of the grapes.
Tasting Notes:
Aroma: The wine presents fragrant aromas of macerated peach, chamomile, and white raspberry.
Palate: It is medium-bodied with a bright, mouthwatering acidity. The flavors are finely meshed, offering a lasting, spice- and saline-laced finish. The texture is lightly chalky, adding to the wine’s elegance and complexity.
Finish: The wine has a long, lingering finish with a balanced and refreshing acidity.
