Lively, neutral dry whites with a pale golden robe, a taut palate with marked acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. An acidic profile ideal for distillation. A traditional component of Armagnac AOC blends, it contributes to the aromatic identity and finesse of Gascon eau-de-vie alongside Ugni Blanc, Baco and Colombard.

The wine region of Albana di Romagna
First Italian DOCG for white wine (Emilia-Romagna, 1987, around Forli, Ravenna, Bologna): Albana the exclusive white signature — abundant sugar and high acidity, skin and seed tannins. Four styles: dry, light and young; amabile fresh and fruity; dolce delicately sweet; passito the most internationally recognised, rich, succulent and seductive. Clays, limestone, marls and fossil-rich sands, Mediterranean climate tempered by Adriatic breezes.
The wine region of Emilia-Romagna
Kingdom of Lambrusco: fresh, fruity sparkling reds (blackberry, cherry, violet), from gourmet dry to convivial off-dry, perfect with local charcuterie. World's best-selling sparkling wine on the Emilia side (Sorbara, Grasparossa, Salamino). East, Romagna: supple fruity Sangiovese, Albana (Italy's 1st white DOCG, 1987) ample and almondy. Also red Gutturnio and white Pignoletto.
The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
