Structured, marine dry whites with an intense golden robe, an ample palate with saline acidity. Signature aromas of candied citrus, yellow fruits, aromatic herbs and iodine notes from the Venetian lagoon. Singular profile. Symbol of lagoon viticulture, grown in tiny quantities on the islands of Mazzorbo and Sant'Erasmo by committed producers. A native Italian white grape from Veneto, nearly extinct, recently rediscovered.

The wine region of Stellenbosch

Showcase of the South African vineyard: signature Cabernet Sauvignon as king red — structured and age-worthy with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco and a menthol touch, firm tannins. Emblematic national Pinotage (created 1925) opulent and smoky (blackberry, coffee, leather). Fleshy Shiraz, supple Merlot as complement. Vibrant Chenin Blanc, ample Chardonnay and lively Sauvignon in whites.


The wine region of Western Cape

Cradle of South African wine. Signature Chenin Blanc (Steen, 20%) in ample, fresh whites with notes of quince, yellow apple, honey and acacia flower, from crisp dry to sweet. Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.

The word of the wine: Film maceration

A technique that consists of leaving the grapes to macerate in the open air at a low temperature before fermentation, thus enhancing the aromatic expression of the wine.
