This is organically and biodynamically grown in the limestone / calcareous clay hills above Trento, and was native fermented on the skins in cement tanks, followed by 12 months of aging in acacia casks, concrete, and clay. Tight white fruit is scented with elderflower, meadow herbs, white grapefruit, lemon pith, along a shimmering, tight, energetic palate.Tasted: 02 May 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $40.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
