Massifitti Bianco Veronese I.G.T. Bio 75cl (2022) SUAVIA

It is a clear expression of Trebbiano di Soave: an historical grape variety that has almost been forgotten, is often misunderstood and confused. Massifitti is the result of a long and adventurous journey that began at the origins of this ancient variety in order to rediscover its character and authentic nature. This wine, born and bred on Fittà basalt, is a tribute to the land and its history. The vineyard covers an area of about 2 hectares, facing south at an altitude of 300 metres. The name Massifitti describes the composition of the volcanic soil of this area which is particularly rich in compact basaltic rocks of large dimensions. It was planted in 2006 using clones of old Trebbiano di Soave vines which were selected in collaboration with the laboratories of the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Milan and Professor Attilio Scienza as part of the recovery project of this ancient variety. Bright straw yellow in colour, it displays a bouquet of citrus and sweet spices which extend over mineral tones and marine perceptions. On the palate it is clean and vertical; the lively acidity is combined with an elegant and creamy structure. The finish is long and savoury.
