Stylish, refreshing white blend of local and international grape varieties.
Since 2009, Aldo Vajra has been making wines for Luigi and Fiorina Baudana, who have been growing grapes in the Serralunga area for over 30 years. Under his leadership, the vineyards have transitioned to organic viticulture. This collaboration gives Aldo the opportunity to make wines in a different region and with other grape varieties.
This white wine is a blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, a small percentage of Riesling and the local Nascetta. Originally Luigi made this wine only from Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, but the addition of Nascetta and Riesling makes the wine more complete. The grapes grow on younger vines in the area of Serralunga.
After harvest, the grapes are pressed softly, with whole bunches. Fermentation takes place in about 12 days in stainless steel barrels at low temperatures, in order to preserve the lively, fruity character of the wine. After fermentation, the wine remains in the barrels for several months, after which it is bottled in the spring.
