Pairing Suggestions

How it was made

Fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks, this wine is made from the garganega grape, which we received in our winery on September 30th, while the chenin blanc had a normal entry on September 15th. The wine was blended in April 2023 and underwent minimal intervention during the process. Aside from a low level of added sulfites to prevent the growth of unwanted microorganisms, we used organic wine yeast and a natural component to prevent bacteria on the moscatel. Our wine is free from any other additives and was cleared using a cellulose filter.
