Canto X

We had been considering the idea of producing a new white wine for some time, and the biggest push towards the choice of Chardonnay came from Elio and Nicolas' boundless passion for this grape variety. Research and dedication will be our companions on this journey, which will last a lifetime, aiming to be ever more capable interpreters of our terroir.

With the suppression of the religious orders and the confiscation of Church property by the Kingdom of Italy, the land from which this wine originated, then part of the ecclesiastical patrimony, was purchased by a local family at an advantageous price, but at a very high cost in the society of the time: excommunication.

Canto X of Dante's Inferno recounts 'the punishment of the heretics', those who challenged the spiritual and temporal power of the Church, to whom we pay homage in the tenth wine produced by our winery.

Tasting notes

Straw yellow with golden highlights. Notes of tropical fruit, ripe mango, passion fruit and bergamot, thyme and flint, with a slight hint of mountain butter, give a complex and fresh nose profile. A great freshness is also found on the palate, where the saline lash makes it extremely taut and persistent.
