Territory and wine style

The Valle d’Aosta DOC denomination tells of a unique alpine environment, characterized by high altitudes, temperature excursions, and soils that contribute to defining taut and mineral wines. In this context, the Petite Arvine shows its most vertical and savory side, with a maturation that maintains energy and precision. The work in the vineyard and winery aims to enhance freshness, drinkability, and complexity, without weighing down the sip, for a white that consistently reflects the mountainous character of the territory.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense straw yellow color with bright golden reflections. On the nose, citrus fruits, fresh tropical fruit, and ripe grapefruit emerge, accompanied by hints of damp fern, dew, salt, ginger, and white pepper. On the palate, the Petite Arvine 2020 is taut, deep, and precise, with an almost cutting salinity that supports its progression. The structure is present but balanced, the finish is long and vibrant, with a freshness that immediately invites the next sip.

Recommended pairings

This white wine pairs naturally with flavorful fish, shellfish, mollusks, and clean-profile seafood preparations. It is also excellent with medium-aged cheeses, vegetarian cuisine, herb risottos, and dishes based on seasonal vegetables. Its savory push makes it interesting even with alpine recipes, delicate white meats, and dishes where a white capable of supporting intense flavors without losing balance is needed.
