Descrizione

This wine presents itself with a remarkable straw-yellow color. Its brilliance and luminosity are emphasized by a fine and continuous perlage, which adds a touch of refinement.

The nose reveals distinctive characteristics of Monte Orfano. It is a clear, sharp, and vibrant fragrance, with a saline freshness and intensely mineral quality. The aroma is extremely clean, inviting a unique sensory exploration.

The palate is delighted by a fresh acidity that blends impeccably with a soft structure. The tasting highlights a pleasant savory-mineral finish, adding complexity and balance to the wine.

Versatile wine that lends itself to multiple food and wine pairings. It is ideal for appetizers and seafood starters. It pairs beautifully with tortellini in broth and delicate fish dishes. Additionally, it can be enjoyed alongside cured meats.

Winery history

Corte Fusia was founded by Daniele Gentile and Gigi Nembrini. The idea took shape in 2010, and the estate developed around the cultivation and winemaking of grapes from Monte Orfano, with the winery housed in a restored historic courtyard in Coccaglio.

Production philosophy

Respect for the land and minimal intervention in the vineyard and cellar: the estate favors integrated viticulture practices and winemaking aimed at faithfully expressing the terroir, with any adjustments made exclusively using the wine itself.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards are located on the southern slope of Monte Orfano, on soils characterized by rocky, clay-rich and moderately calcareous components; exposure and hillside position influence the style of the wines.
