A few years ago we had as a friendly consultant a great Tuscan oenologist, who was literally in love with the Cinqueterre. He lived almost in another dimension, struck by the landscapes, the streets on the walls, the sea and its sunsets, as by the unique and ancient way of “giving sulfur” with the cluster bunch of grapes, enchanted by ancient customs being a biodynamic, and therefore linked to the most sincere nature. One day he tasted the wine directly from the tub, looked at it, savored it, exclaiming: Ah, this wine is PIPATO by the angels. In the presence of an exceptional year like 2017, it seemed nice to us, as it is necessary to remember this thing, certain that he will appreciate it. To health, Federico!

Yield:
1,2 kg per stump
Harvest time:
Manually in 15 kg boxes. End of September
Vinification
The grapes are harvested at the end of September from a single plot overlooking the sea, making a careful and rigorous selection of the bunches and vinified "in white" with pre-fermentative cold maceration, using dry ice. The fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 15 ° C, to favor the frankness, cleanliness, and fragrance of the aromas.
Refinement
After the alcoholic fermentation, the wine undergoes maturation in stainless steel for 5/6 months on the fine lees at a controlled temperature of 10 °C, to avoid malolactic fermentation In March/April racking, stabilization and bottling take place.
Tasting notes
Color: bright golden yellow with brilliant reflections Bouquet: Very intense and deep, a mix of ripe fruit especially citrus and tropical, strong mineral notes and fresh scents of aromatic herbs, typical of this unique area. Taste: great body and volume, crisp basic acidity, structure, and texture that give it perspective and a great capacity for aging, balance, and harmony among the various flavor components. Very long and persistent finish, with a marked mineral character typical of the coast and inexhaustible salivation, which accentuates the character and personality of a great white wine.
Recommendation
Wine for important dishes of Ligurian gastronomy, both land, and sea. An excellent example of a meditation product. Optimal serving temperature 10 °C in very wide glasses.
