TORNESE LE ORIGINI
…The Story
Tornese Origini is a 100% chardonnay, selected from the oldest vines, vinified and elevated in 500-liter French oak tonneaux. Exactly like the historic first Il Tornese to which Claudio Drei Donà gave birth in 1988. Today with Le Origini we want to pay homage to our history with a wine that brings that vision back to life.
UVE
100% Chardonnay
VINIFICATION
After 15-18 hours of cold maceration in contact with the skins, the wine undergoes fermentation in tonneaux (500lt.) of new French wood. Malo-lactic fermentation is carried out in wood.
AGING
In tonneaux on its noble lees with regular batonnàge for a period of about 6-8 months, it is then bottled and aged there for at least 16-18 months before release.
AVERAGE ANNUAL PRODUCTION
3,300 bottles and 50 magnums
