Bosco Piano IGT Marca Trevigiana

Variety

100% Tai.

Soil and vineyards

Clayey soil, rich in mineral salts; planting density of 5,000 vines per hectare, with Guyot pruning, for a limited yield per hectare.

Harvest

Manual harvesting in the first and second weeks of September.

Vinification and ageing

The manual harvest begins once the grapes have reached the optimum levels of total acidity and sugars; they are then destemmed and undergo a short period of cold maceration. The fermentation of the must is then carried out at a controlled temperature (18°C) in stainless-steel tanks. The wine remains on its yeasts, in stainless-steel tanks, until the spring. After in-bottle ageing for at least 6 months, the wine is ready to be released onto the market.

Maturation potential

Complete maturation is reached after 10-12 months of in-bottle ageing.

Tasting notes

Straw-yellow colour with greenish edges; typical, enjoyable bouquet laced with fruity overtones evoking damson, ripe peach and pink grapefruit, along with delicate notes of hawthorn; the dry palate has a typical, slightly bitter finish that is reminiscent of almonds.
