The \u003cstrong\u003ehilltop microclimate\u003c\/strong\u003e, influenced by the valleys of the Paglia and Tiber rivers, ensures optimal ripening of the grapes, enhancing the natural \u003cstrong\u003efreshness of the white wines\u003c\/strong\u003e typical of Orvieto Classico.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production process begins in mid-September with the separate harvesting of the different varieties.
