CANTINA BERGAMASCA

Valcalepio DOC Bianco

Leukos

This Valcalepio Bianco is made solely from Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio grapes.
Shows a pleasing pale gold colour, aromas of pear, melon and light grapefruit, typical of Pinot Grigio and tropical fruits, hints of toast and vanilla from the barrel fermented Chardonnay. The oak is delicate and well balanced. In the mouth it is very dry and quite spicy with appetising acidity and deliciously savoury; the aftertaste is long, rich and clean.
Grape Variety : 60% Chardonnay; 40% Pinot Grigio.
Vineyard : The grapes for this wine is grown on the slopes of vineyards situated on the hills outside Bergamo. For this wine we selected several vineyards where the growers had reduced the crop quite significantly and only the best ripend fruit are used.
Vinification : the carefully selected hand harvested grapes are crushed, de-stemmed as soon as possible after picking. The two different varieties, Chardonnay, and Pinot Grigio are vinified separately. Chardonnay is made in French oak tonneaux, this portion also undergoes malolactic fermentation and lees stirring. The fermentation of Pinot Grigio takes place in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruity character of this variety. The two different parties are blended, as soon as the fermentation is finished. The wine then spends 6 months on the lees prior to bottling, and remains further 3 months in the bottle before release.
Alcohol : 13% Vol.
Closure : cork
Bottle Size : 0,75l.
