EMILIA ROMAGNA
AltoVanto Bianco is a white wine produced from 100% Grechetto Gentile, locally referred to as Pignoletto, in Monteveglio, at the heart of the Colli Bolognesi. This wine is a true testament to this remarkable land, where ancient rural traditions are still alive in the fields and vineyards, and each bottle captures a piece of that history. Altovanto white will surprise you with its depth and connection to the terroir. Federico made to achieve an unbeatable exceptional expression of this territory and grape variety, comparable to wines of much greater renown.
Grape variety
100% Crechetto Gentile (Pignoletto).
Vineyards of origin
The vineyards are located in the hills of Montebudello area, the heart of Colli Bolognesi.
Soil: Medium-textured, tending to clayey.
Training system: Guyot, 5,200 plants per hectare.
Season in the field: The vineyard spans one hectare. The east exposure and moderate altitude between 150-200 meters above sea level allow optimal ripening.
Average yield: 80 q/ha.
Vinification
The grapes picked, carried out in 20 kg crates, between September and October. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 14-16°C. Bottling is unfiltered.
Aging: 6 months of aging in the bottle to harmonize Flavors.
Tasting notes
The wine presents a clear straw-yellow colour with brilliant reflections. On the nose, it reveals an intense, fine, and persistent aromatic profile, offering floral notes of acacia and potpourri, alongside vibrant aromas of crisp, white-fleshed fruits, such as white peach and pear. Subtle vegetal nuances and mineral undertones add complexity to the refined and well-balanced bouquet.
On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, displaying perfect balance between its fresh acidity and texture. A slightly bitter aftertaste lends character, while the persistent, dry finish immediately entices another sip.
Pairings
Ideal with vegetable-based pasta dishes. Excellent with “tortellini” in broth, fish, white meats, and delicate cheeses. Excellent pairing also with the light Nordic cuisine of Denmark.
Alcohold content and serving temperature
Alcohol content: 13,5% Vol.
Serving temperature: 10 - 12°C.
