Blanc de Morgex and La Salle - Ermes Pavese

White wine obtained from Priè Blanc grapes that come from vineyards located on sandy soil at an altitude of 1200 meters s.l.m. The harvest is manual and is carried out in the last ten days of September, before October. In the cellar the whole bunches that are not de-stemmed undergo a soft pressing and are then vinified in stainless steel. The Blanc de Morgex et de La Salle is straw-yellow with golden reflections. On the nose are notes of aromatic herbs, floral, with hints of white fruits, williams pear, and spicy notes of white pepper. At the sip it is fresh intense, persistent with evident mineral notes. A wine that makes acidity its strong point.
