Garganega - Quota 101

With Quota 101 Garganega, a first-class organic white wine finds its way into the glass. It reveals a wonderfully bright, platinum-yellow color. The first nose of the Garganega shows notes of apricots and acacia. To the fruity hints of the bouquet are added more fruity-balsamic nuances.

This wine impresses with its straightforwardly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine, this Italian naturally delights, despite all its dryness, with the finest balance. Excellent flavor does not necessarily require a lot of sugar. On the palate, the texture of this well-balanced white wine presents itself as wonderfully crisp and fleshy. On the finish, this wine from the Veneto wine-growing region finally delights with beautiful length. Once again, hints of acacia and apricot appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the limestone- and clay-dominated soils join in.

Vinification of Quota 101 Garganega

The foundation for this balanced Garganega from Veneto is grapes of the Garganega variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Veneto. Here, the vines sink their roots deep into soils of clay and limestone. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are immediately brought to the winery. There they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After it is complete, the Garganega can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for several months.
