The wine region of Orvieto Classico
Historic heart of Orvieto DOC in Umbria (volcanic tuff-limestone soil): Grechetto and Procanico (Trebbiano Toscano) (>=60%) with Verdello, Canaiolo Bianco (Drupeggio) and Malvasia — fruity and floral profile with green apple, meadow flowers, citrus, yellow berries and spice hint, pale straw colour, fresh vivacity, good acidity, long perfumed finish with almond notes. Distinctive tuff minerality.
The wine region of Umbria
"Green heart" of Italy, cradle of Sagrantino: exceptional tannic red in Sagrantino di Montefalco DOCG, dense and concentrated with notes of blackberry, candied plum, liquorice, spice and leather, powerful tannins and long ageing. Suppler Sangiovese in blends, Cabernet and Merlot in Torgiano DOCG. Orvieto whites based on Grechetto and Trebbiano, full and almondy, from dry to sweet Muffato. ~13,000 ha between Tuscany and Lazio.
The word of the wine: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
