Manufacturing technique: The harvest, exclusively manual, takes place between the end of September and October, making several passages on the vineyards.
Only the ripest bunches, healthy and loose are selected and collected with extreme care. They are then hung on some networks inside a "fruit house" - room used exclusively the drying of the grapes. From the harvest the grapes remain withering until the end of March. Throughout this period i bunches are checked daily to remove any imperfect grapes. The pressing is soft, so extract the most noble part of the must. The wine is elevated in barriques, partly new and partly used, for twelve months.
Color: The wine colors the glass of a beautiful and very bright golden yellow.
Bouquet: Fascinating; warm, intense, long nose. We find an infinite series of hints: persimmons, apricots, dried figs, papaya, citrus fruits candied fruit, caramel and peel of Garganega grape very clean.
Taste: Sweet, soft wine. Sugars and acidity dance in unison

Food pairings: For those who love pairing with desserts, we recommend it with a pan di Spagna with apricots; those who prefer the combination salty, try it with a Monte Veronese (cheese from the Monti Lessini) "aged".
