Production area and location: Vineyards of Campo di Pietra, Piave river basin, to the south east of Treviso.

Ripening and aging: Left on the lees for six months in steel vats with periodic batonnage.
Sensory characteristics: Straw yellow in colour, often very full. Flowery fragrance reminiscent of roses, mature exotic fruits and also orange peel and blossom. Harmonic, full taste, mellow, savoury, aromatic and spicy.
