Velenosi Marche Passerina 2020
Passerina Bio by Velenosi winery is a dry white wine of bright yellow light golden colour. It expresses strong floral scents of lime and hawthorne followed by fruity scents of pear and finishing off with cedar and ripe grapefruit. Fresh and savoury on the palate, typical of the variety, it offers an enhancement of the aromatic patrimony already perceivable in the bouquet.
Only best grapes carefully selected are used for the production of this wine. The ageing lasts until the February following the harvest, always in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, guarantees constant temperature of about 10°C necessary to maintain the patrimony of the bouquet.
How is the wine made?
A careful selection of the grapes consents
that only the best grapes are used for the production of this wine. A light pressing is followed by an abrupt decrease in temperature so as to favor the decantation of the must. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 13-15°C. The subsequent aging, always in stainless steel tanks, lasts until February at a constant temperature of 10°C in order to preserve the patrimony of the bouquet.
