Viognier La Volpe e l’uva
La Volpe e l'uva's grapes are hand-picked, gently pressed, and aged on the lees. Girasasso’s Viognier stands out for its greater aromatics and structure. On the nose, it recalls a blend of Sauvignon and Chardonnay, with intense aromas, while on the palate it is savory and full-bodied, with a light tannic note due to the thick skins. Although naturally low in acidity, an early harvest allows reach the goal of a well-balanced wine, avoiding excessive alcohol content.
