Wine Description:
Vigna De Franco A Vita Leukò Bianco is a captivating expression of southern Italian winemaking, hailing from the Frassà vineyard nestled between the Ionian Sea and Sila mountains. This unique location infuses the wine with coastal influences and significant diurnal temperature shifts, enhancing its complexity. A blend of 70% Greco Bianco and 30% Gaglioppo, the wine is crafted with meticulous care: Greco Bianco undergoes brief maceration while Gaglioppo is directly pressed for white vinification. Spontaneously co-fermented in stainless steel tanks, it ages for 8 months on the lees, resulting in a textured and nuanced palate. Light filtration and sulfuring before bottling preserve its purity and character. Vigna De Franco A Vita Leukò Bianco exemplifies the producer's dedication to showcasing indigenous varietals in a style that harmonizes freshness with depth, making it a distinctive choice for enthusiasts of Italian white wines.
