In the glass, it displays an elegant straw yellow colour, opening up to a \u003cstrong\u003erefined and floral bouquet\u003c\/strong\u003e with refreshing citrus notes of grapefruit. On the palate, the sip is dry, supported by a vibrant \u003cstrong\u003ebalance between savouriness and minerality\u003c\/strong\u003e. Thanks to this dynamic profile, the wine perfectly enhances \u003cstrong\u003eshellfish and fish dishes\u003c\/strong\u003e, and also pairs precisely with white meats, poultry, and cheeses; it is recommended to serve at a temperature between 12 and 14°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rows of Petite Arvine grow in the Cumiod area, in the Aosta Valley. Situated between 880 and 920 metres above sea level, the vineyards are a pure example of \u003cstrong\u003eheroic viticulture\u003c\/strong\u003e on steep slopes. The \u003cstrong\u003esandy and stony soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, rich in slate, granite, and quartz, give the white wine its pronounced mineral streak. Trained using the Guyot system with high density to limit the \u003cstrong\u003eyield of the grapes\u003c\/strong\u003e, the vines benefit from a north-south exposure that ensures constant and optimal sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manual harvest at the end of October is followed by a delicate \u003cstrong\u003ecold skin maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e, an essential phase for extracting aromatic precursors. The vinification is meticulous: processed partly in amphora and in earthenware jars, the must then passes into wooden and steel barrels. This rigorous synergy of materials, completed by \u003cstrong\u003emalolactic fermentation in wood\u003c\/strong\u003e, defines the structure of the wine while preserving its original freshness. The result is a solid white wine, endowed with remarkable \u003cstrong\u003eageing potential\u003c\/strong\u003e, capable of evolving in the bottle for up to ten years.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSopraquota 900\u003c\/strong\u003e from Rosset Terroir is an elegant wine from the Aosta Valley, a vibrant expression of \u003cstrong\u003eheroic viticulture\u003c\/strong\u003e practised on steep slopes at over 900 metres above sea level.
