In this Riserva version, the wine gains greater complexity thanks to the selection of grapes and a 12-month aging process, of which at least 4 months are in bottle, carried out in the ancient tuff caves of the winery. The result is a characterful white, faithful to the territory but with a more refined and mature structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a clear and bright color, consistent with the white type.
