The Garganega di Gambellara, freshness and warmth of a volcanic land. A mature and serene wine: it knows its roots, it trusts in the future. A refined memory, the reflection of the horizon, the pampering of the evening. In the long journey of knowledge of my land this wine represents a new chapter, an unprecedented interpretation of Garganega. With a long contact with the skins and sur lie ripening I extracted the deep soul of the grape, a mix of strength and depth supported by an innate grace. A glass to be enjoyed alone or with structured dishes.
