Viansa '23 Carneros Sonoma Terra Bianchetta Trevigiana
Bianchetta Trevigiana is a thin-skinned, white wine grape with delicate flavors that is handled gently to produce a bright fruit forward wine. True to those characteristics, our Bianchetta Trevigiana is fruit forward with notes of Gravenstein apples, pear, kiwi, lemon, and lemon blossoms. The flavors show a richness on the entry with juicy pear, kiwi, a powdered minerality, and a slight texture on the finish. Try this unique Italian varietal with chicken tagine or grilled halibut with a lemon caper sauce.
Whole clusters were harvested in the early morning and pressed to stainless steel tank. The juice was settled to under 50 NTU before being racked of the solids to another tank, where it was inoculated with Zymaflore X5 yeast. This strain was selected for its ability to heighten aromatic intensity. The juice fermented for three weeks at 58°F before settling and racking off the heavy lees to age in stainless steel tank for three months.
