Made from \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Bianco\u003c\/strong\u003e grapes, it stands out on the nose for its clear aromas of apple blossom, green apple and white peach, combined with delicate citrus nuances. On the palate, it offers a dry and fresh sip, driven by a pronounced acidity that makes it lively and easy to drink. The finish delivers an elegant fruity persistence, enriched by a characteristic \u003cstrong\u003ehint of hazelnut\u003c\/strong\u003e. Thanks to its \u003cstrong\u003etaut aromatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e, it pairs perfectly with delicate starters, shellfish and white meats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are grown in Cornaiano, on the breezy hills of the \u003cstrong\u003eOltradige\u003c\/strong\u003e. The vineyards stretch between 450 and 500 metres above sea level, an ideal position to ensure the regular ripening of the bunches. The vines sink their roots into soils formed from \u003cstrong\u003eglacial-era sediments\u003c\/strong\u003e and characterised by a strong presence of \u003cstrong\u003evolcanic porphyry\u003c\/strong\u003e. The mountain microclimate and the unique geology of the soil give the wine its typical \u003cstrong\u003emineral imprint\u003c\/strong\u003e, ensuring an expression that is always fresh and with great aromatic clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe process begins with \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvesting\u003c\/strong\u003e, carefully carried out to preserve the integrity of the bunches. This is followed by gentle pressing and the natural settling of the must. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e vats, a technique essential for preserving the primary aromas of the variety. The wine then matures for three to six months on the \u003cstrong\u003efine lees\u003c\/strong\u003e, always in steel. This period on the noble lees enriches the structure and ensures greater persistence, enhancing the natural freshness of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced on the historic 16th-century estate of \u003cstrong\u003eCantina Girlan\u003c\/strong\u003e, founded in 1923. Under the guidance of oenologist Gerhard Kofler, the vines grow on \u003cstrong\u003eglacial-era sediments\u003c\/strong\u003e rich in volcanic porphyry, giving the wine a distinctive \u003cstrong\u003eAlpine character\u003c\/strong\u003e.
