We are in the Colli Tortonesi in Piedmont, where Andrea Tirelli produces this wine from Cortese grapes in biodynamic agriculture. The life from the vineyard continues its journey and arrives in the cellar through grapes left to ferment spontaneously and that make a short maceration on the skins of 5/6 days. The wine undergoes neither clarification nor filtration, and comes alive in the glass giving floral and fruity aromas, balsamic and spicy hints, a marked minerality and a long persistence.
