Podium V.16

The grapes come from a single-vineyard site near Montecarotto, on medium-textured soil with clay and sand. The fully ripe, selected whole bunches are gently pressed; the must is cold-settled and fermented at low temperature. The wine is matured for 15 months in stainless steel on the fine lees at 10 °C, followed by four months of bottle ageing. The nose shows citrus fruit and anise. On the palate it is soft and full-bodied, with a long-lasting, salty freshness. The designation V.16 refers to tank number 16, which stood out among the separately vinified lots in the 2023 vintage.
