Production notes

A fine blend created from the most noble native varietals like Corvina and Trebbiano of Lugana. In 11 minutes, the skin contact time from which it takes its name, the most noble qualities of the grapes and the slightly rosy shade that characterize this wine are extracted. Once the must is obtained, it is cooled and transferred to a steel tank where it remains for about 11 hours, the necessary time for the more solid parts to decant. Once alcoholic fermentation is concluded, the wine remains in contact with the lees for about 3-4 months. The wine is then filtered and bottled to be on the market in January following the harvest.

Tasting notes

The Corvina varietal, which dominates in terms of percentage, was chosen for the floral aromas as well as the significant acidity it gives to the wine. Trebbiano brings elegance and a long finish; Syrah gives fine fruit and spice notes to the glass and finally, Carmenère creates structure, ensuring stability over time. This a fresh, enveloping rosé with an intense and complex bouquet, created to accompany spring or summer evenings and more.
