Description
What kind of wine it is
Monsupello Riesling is a still white wine that is semi-aromatic, enhancing the characteristics of the Riesling Renano grapes grown in the Province of Pavia area. Produced exclusively in stainless steel to maintain a clear and authentic varietal profile, it stands out for its bright straw-yellow colour with greenish highlights. On the nose, it offers a fresh and fruity bouquet with harmonious balance. On the palate, it is dry and smooth, with an elegant structure, a pleasant body, and a well-defined lingering finish that enhances every sip.
Where it comes from
The grapes originate from the first band of hills between Oliva Gessi and Torricella Verzate, in the heart of the Province of Pavia area. The vineyards are planted on clay-limestone soils with an ideal exposure to ensure consistent ripening and clean aromas. The vines, trained using the Guyot system, maintain optimal density to encourage aromatic concentration. Thanks to careful agronomic management and controlled yields, the production faithfully reflects the unique features of this hilly terroir.
How it is produced
The manual harvest is carried out to preserve the integrity and freshness of the grapes. The process involves gentle pressing of the whole bunches to extract only the free-run must. Every stage takes place in an inert environment using nitrogen and dry ice to prevent oxidation and protect the aromatic profile. After settling, the must ferments in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The process continues with careful racking and concludes with maturation in stainless steel until spring, a technical choice aimed at preserving the fruit's vibrancy and integrity.
History and Curiosities
The historic Monsupello winery presents this elegant Riesling Renano, a true expression of the Pavia hills. The grapes, grown on prized clay-limestone soils, are hand-picked in September to preserve their integrity. The meticulous vinification in steel protects the must from oxidation thanks to the innovative use of nitrogen and dry ice, keeping the fruit's vitality intact. This results in a limited edition of 18,000 bottles, offering a fresh and fruity sip, a perfect celebration of Lombard tradition since 1893.
