Description
History
The Tamellini family has been a family of winemakers for four generations, but it was only in 1998 that the winery of the same name was founded, with the intention of creating a Soave different from the others, more elegant and fragrant. The main grape for the creation of this wine, Garganega, is therefore valorised and it is decided not to use barriques or large barrels, in order to guarantee a clearly recognizable identity for this product.
Grapes used
Garganega 100%
Production method
The grapes are harvested when they reach optimal ripeness and are selected already at the time of harvesting. It is immediately cooled and subjected to soft pressing, and placed in stainless steel vats for fermentation at a controlled temperature of 15°C. The wine ages on its fine lees for approximately 4-5 months. After about another month of resting in the bottle, the wine is finally released on the market.
