VENETO IGT
IOSE
Iose comes from a beautiful vineyard where slopes and compliance require a great human presence. We thought of this wine as an intense white to remember, we believe it is so. It is a structured white wine to be tasted around 12°C with acacia and elderberry hints on the nose and hazelnut on the palate, accompanied by a pleasant freshness. Iose, in our dialect, means Giuseppe, the name of the one who first realised the vineyard almost a century ago. In many years that particular vineyard has always been called Iose, even today, completely renovated, when we go up for some work we say to ourselves: "I’m going to Iose”

THE VINIFICATIONWe pick the grapes by hand in the beginning of October, in a beautiful vineyard on the hill where the soil is very dry with a perfect sun exposition. The grapes arrive in the cellar very quickly to preserve the quality as best as possible. The white fermentation take place by controlled temperature in order to extract the best flavour preserving colour and freshness. The wine keeps in contact whit its lees for several weeks, then It rest for twelve months 50% in tonneaux and 50% in vat. After that, the wine comes back all together as in the beginning to be ready for the bottles.
