Secondo
Monferrato DOC Bianco

Our Monferrato Bianco DOC comes from a Timorasso vineyard grown on white clay-marl soils. This historic Piedmontese variety gives the wine a pronounced minerality, good structure, and great potential for aging over time.

Secondo Monferrato DOC Bianco

Grape Variety

Ancient native Piedmontese grape

Area

The Gaviese hills in the province of Alessandria, Piedmont. Training system: Piedmontese Guyot. Planting density: 4,000-4,500 vines per hectare. Northeast exposure at altitudes between 200 and 400 meters. Clayey soils tending towards limestone.

Vinification and Aging

Fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The hand-picked grapes are pressed in a pneumatic press and fermented at a controlled temperature. The wine remains in contact with the fine lees for 4 months before being clarified, filtered, and bottled.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of ripe stone fruit lead to a structured palate with notes of citrus and apricot, accompanied by hints of dried fruit, minerals, and a lively acidity. The finish is long, savory, and slightly salty.

Pairing

Perfect with pasta, risotto, and seafood, served at 10-12°C.
