Germano Ettore - Serralunga d'Alba, Piemonte
Langhe Bianco Binel, D.O.C.
40% Riesling and 60% Chardonnay grapes with 4000 bottles produced. Vines were planted in 1995 in soil consisting of limestone and clay. Harvest takes place at the end of September / beginning of October. After soft pressing of very ripe grapes and fermentation of the must in new barriques, the wine stays in the barrel until June. The wine is bottled at the end of July, at which time it remains in the bottle for at least 6 months. Its color is straw yellow; its nose reveals a variety of floral and fruity aromas with well-integrated hints of vanilla and bread crust. In the mouth it is rather full bodied with good fixed acidity, typical of Riesling. Its finish is long and its aftertaste persistent.
