Donna Lisa Malvasia is produced with 100% Malvasia Bianca grapes, harvested in the first ten days of September.
The grapes, such as Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca), Prugnola and Rossola, from the Grumello sub-area, are vinified "in red" with a medium-long maceration. After 2 months in steel and 18 months in large 80 hl Slavonian oak barrels, followed by another 4 months of aging in bottle.
From this ancient vine dear to the Popes, which was cultivated in Italy as early as 200 BC with the name of Apicia, Apicius or Apianae - according to Colummella and the other Georgics, a sweet wine with a Moscato flavor was obtained.
Verdeca grapes express themselves with the characteristic straw yellow and greenish reflections.
Wine produced in an alpine environment using Nebbiolo grapes vinified in white. The geological origin of the land dates back to the collision between the African and European plates that gave rise to the Alps. The great variability of the resulting rocks give minerality and elegance.
The Vette owes its name to the imposing peaks that frame the vineyards from which it is born, a Sauvignon Blanc of great freshness and minerality.
