Manzoni Bianco Veneto IGT

Product description

The Manzoni Bianco Veneto IGT is a white wine made from 100% Incrocio Manzoni and is best served with fish, seasoned meat or an omelette.

This unique wine is made from 100% Manzoni Bianco, also known as Incrocio Manzoni, a remarkable cross between Riesling Renano and Pinot Bianco. Our vines were planted in 1992 and grow on loamy-clay soil, which contributes to the deep, mineral character of this wine. The grapes are carefully hand-harvested to ensure perfect ripeness.

After harvesting, the small, compact bunches are gently pressed to obtain a pure, delicate must with fine aromas of exotic fruits. Following a short cold maceration on the skins, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. A portion of the wine is then aged in lightly toasted oak barrels (5 hl tonneaux), while the remainder continues to age in stainless steel. Just before bottling, the two parts are blended, giving the wine its characteristic Manzoni aromas and a refined, structured body, enhanced by the subtle oak influence.

The result is a beautifully intense straw-yellow wine with subtle golden highlights. The nose immediately reveals the mineral notes typical of the variety, followed by rich aromas of ripe white peaches, honey, wildflowers, and a delicate toasted note reminiscent of hazelnuts. On the palate, the wine is warm, soft, and full-bodied, accompanied by a pleasant freshness and a lively mineral finish. The aftertaste is long and elegant, with delicate almond notes.

This elegant wine is an excellent choice as a distinctive aperitif, but also pairs wonderfully with vegetable dishes, grilled fish, and white meats. It is particularly well-suited to creamy potato gnocchi with cheese. Serve at a temperature of 8 to 10°C to fully enjoy its fine complexity and elegance.
