The Story
I originate from the volcanic, mineral-rich hillsides of the Soave Classico zone, where ancient soils impart clarity and character. My makers at Balestri Valda farm organically and embrace gently-handled, stainless-steel vinification to let my terroir shine. The result: a white wine that honours tradition yet feels fresh and modern.
Why You’ll Love Me
I open with delicate aromas of white flowers, honeysuckle and lemon peel. On the palate, I’m crisp and clean—fresh citrus and stone-fruit notes glide over a flair of minerality, leading into a surprisingly long, joyous finish. I’m both uncomplicated and elegant—perfect when you want something expressive without being showy.
