Plenus Passerina 2017 - Marina Palusci

Plenus Passerina - Marina Palusci

Plenus Passerina is an explosive and dynamic white wine made from Passerina grapes from vineyards with an average age of 30 years. The grape harvest is manual, and in the cellar they are destemmed and start spontaneous fermentation using only indigenous yeasts. The subsequent aging takes place in steel tanks. The Passerina Plenus has a straw yellow color with an explosive nose of citrus fruits, aromatic herbs. On the palate it strikes freshness and minerality.
