Description

Pleasant and recognisable by its extreme elegance, Occhione is the estate's only white wine. As rare as the bird species that nests in the dunes and sands of Marina di Bibbona, it is a wine full of Mediterranean charm, possessing finesse and lightness but with an equally deep and persistent mouthfeel. Made in small quantities, it displays a certain stylistic and sensory a nity with the area's memorable red wines, thanks to its moderate concentration and richness.

From this winery
Campo di Sasso is formed by three different plots of vineyards west of the road that joins Bibbona to Bolgheri on the lower elevation, which means the land is more sandy and the climate is warmer during the summer months. These conditions are ideal for growing Syrah, which accounts for 34% of the blend of Insoglio del Cinghiale. Read more

Harvest The Vermentino harvest began in the first week of September. It took place in the early hours of the morning, when temperatures were cooler, strictly by hand in order to make an initial selection of the grapes directly in the vineyard.
Wine making The freshly picked grapes are transported to the cold store and brought to a temperature of 8 0°C. After selection on a sorting belt, the grapes undergo soft pressing to obtain the free-run juice. The must ferments in temperature-controlled steel tanks. The temperature is gradually increased to a maximum of 16°C towards the end of the process to preserve the freshness of the aromas.
Aging Thirty days of ageing on fine lees with daily bâtonnage precede the composition of the final blend, which matures for a further two months.
