The hill overlooking Trento, with its clayey-limestone soils, welcomes the Manzoni Bianco and matures the grapes in late September. The character of the Fontanasanta vineyards is expressed through this hybrid, born of a mix of Riesling with Pinot Bianco. Its ability to evolve overtime requires patience; Fontanasanta Manzoni Bianco is a wine that really comes into its own at least three years after harvest.

Tasting Note

Slightly cloudy golden yellow with delicate green reflections.
The notes of distinct minerality and dried pastry are appealing, in which the wine appears very nicely framed. Wild and untamed, this white drop immediately arouses curiosity for the first sip.
At the palate, it presents itself gripping and pleasantly demanding with its fine astringency and salty structure.
