Descrizione

A refined white wine produced from pure Pinot Bianco grapes.

The winemaking takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks, refinement and maturation, on the fine lees, are carried out in large oak barrels for nine months.

On the nose it offers delicate hints of citrus fruits, mixed with fruity notes of apple and pear, and nuances of aromatic herbs.

The sip is round, savory, and extremely fresh.

Excellent wine as an aperitif or to pair with fish dishes in general, vegetable first courses and vegetarian dishes.

Winery history

The company's origins date back to the 1950s, when Pierino Piantavigna planted the first vineyards; it was officially established in 1997 by Alessandro Francoli. Over time ownership and management have evolved to include local family collaborations and an expansion of vineyards and production, while maintaining a focus on the viticultural traditions of the Colline Novaresi.

Production philosophy

Showcasing the territory through careful, low-impact viticulture, prioritizing native grape varieties and practices that bring out the character of the soil and climate. The approach combines respect for local tradition with modern winemaking techniques to produce wines with long aging potential.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located in Colline Novaresi and the Gattinara area, at the foot of Monte Rosa: morainic-alluvial soils, porphyry and glacial sands with marked temperature variations that contribute to the freshness and longevity of the wines.
