Bianco dello Stella IGT Venezia Giulia

Brilliant straw yellow with pale green. Floral bouquet and lively with hints of yellow fruit. Rich flavored, elegant and pleasant acidity.  Grapes: Malvasia and Friulano.

 Surface vineyards: 15 hectares.

 Type of soil: clay and sandy alluvial.

 System: Sylvoz and Guyot, 4700 vines per hectare.

 Winemaking: Harvest early for Malvasia in order to reap greater aromatic complexity and the high acidity, cold maceration in the press for several hours and then sent to fermentation. Friulano is hand picked at full ripeness, pressed and then fermentation at controlled temperature. The two varieties are then fine-tune on the lees until the spring to then be assembled.

 Refining: 80% of maturation in steel tanks, the remaining 20% evolved in small barrels of French oak and bottle aging for the next four months.

 Food pairings: Appetizers, seafood starters, risottos, and white meat.
