The former provides tension and citrus notes, while the latter adds volume and depth. Amphora, acacia, and different woods broaden the texture without sacrificing precision. We chose it for those seeking a significant white wine, capable of accompanying food and evolving beautifully in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWine Profile\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe entry is taut, with lime and grapefruit. The palate expands with green plum, white flowers, and yellow fruit, gaining a creamy texture. The acidity remains bright, holding together concentration and volume. The finish is long, fresh, and defined, with the SĂ©millon leaving a broader sensation and the Sauvignon Blanc bringing the wine back to verticality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe winery's signature\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SĂ©millon is whole bunch pressed; the Sauvignon Blanc is destemmed and remains on the skins for 6-18 hours before pressing. Fermentation takes place in 600-liter barrels and clay amphorae. The wine ages for 12 months on coarse lees: 15% in amphora, 10% in new oak, and the rest in woods from the second to the eighth passage. French and Austrian oak are used, along with a portion of French acacia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePairs with salmon sashimi, grilled fish with olives and capers, shellfish, and smoked dishes. In Italian cuisine, it is excellent with lemon risotto, baccalĂ , vitello tonnato, and pasta with molluscs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eServing\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServe at 10-12 °C.
