Eugenio Pastoris La Norezza

White from the Viverone estate, mostly pressed directly with part of the grapes macerated for two months and a small share of late, botrytised fruit. Rested a year in concrete and bottled unfiltered.

Tasting notes

The La Norezza Erbaluce presents a brilliant straw-yellow color with green reflections, exuding delicate aromas of white flowers, green apple, and a touch of almond. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with a vibrant acidity and a mineral-driven finish. [Profiles: fresh, dry, aromatic, mineral, crisp]
