Prêt à boire blanc 2023 - Cave Monaja

Prêt à boire blanc- Cave Monaja

Cave Monaja's Prêt à boire blanc is a wine that well represents the character of Aosta Valley wines. With its good body and the right alcohol content, it lends itself to being an ideal companion for various dishes. The floral and fruity notes on the nose make it particularly inviting, and its dryness makes it versatile for gastronomic pairings. Its freshness and aroma also make it perfect to be enjoyed alone, perhaps in a convivial context. Product obtained from a blend  white grape varieties. The grapes come from vineyards with an average age of 40/50 years located on predominantly morainic, loose, sandy soils with slopes of up to 40%. Manually harvested in boxes in the month of September, and in the cellar, the grapes are destemmed and left to ferment in contact with the skins for 24/36 hours, then continuing the fermentation and refinement in Amphora, whose porosity has been deliberately reduced for a progressive and more delicate micro-oxygenation process; aging for 4-5 months in contact with the fine lees.

Winery: Cave Monaja 

Cave Monaja represents an extraordinary example of how passion and respect for tradition can be combined with a deep connection with the territory. Founded by Chul Kyu Peloso, the winery stands out for its commitment to the recovery of old historic vineyards and the valorisation of native varieties, thus contributing to the preservation of the wine biodiversity of the Aosta Valley. The choice to use traditional cultivation and winemaking methods reflects not only a respect for nature, but also a desire to produce wines that tell a story, that of the land and local culture. Each bottle of Cave Monaja is therefore a sensorial journey that invites you to discover the unique characteristics of the Alpine terroir, with its particular soils, climates and microclimates. The result of this careful and scrupulous work translates into wines that stand out for their elegance, finesse and complexity, appreciated not only in Italy but also internationally. Cave Monaja is not just a winery, but a real cultural and environmental project, aimed at celebrating and preserving the winemaking traditions of the Aosta Valley for future generations.
