Marche Bianco IGT 2022 Orange Wine – 6 bottles

Orange Wine

Vintage 2022 was characterized by extreme heat and extreme draught. From May 1st to September 1st there wasn’t a drop of rain. Nevertheless, our vigorous old vines performed great thanks to their deep and well-established root system and we continued with our dry farming. To protect the fruit from potential heat burn we left a bit extra leaf cover on the vines through the summer, only to uncover the clusters just before harvest which came very early as maturation was well ahead of schedule. The Trebbiano and Malvasia first pass was on August 27th, and the second pass was on September 17th. Despite the early harvest, sugar levels exceeded those of 2021.
