Brand: Musivum
The production area of Pinot Grigio Musivum Vicinia is in the municipality of Mezzocorona. The area was first cultivated with vines in the 1950s. The soils therefore have a limited cultivation area and a rather superficial groundwater between 50 and 100 cm, and the soil type is silty. They have a sufficient supply of water even in periods of drought and good fertility, essential characteristics for Pinot Grigio, a rather weak variety. Furthermore, Vicinia is a very precocious area, as it leans against imposing rock walls which guarantee protection from cold winds in the late winter and early spring periods and have a warming effect during all the vegetative phases, reflecting the sun's heat. The production starts with a slightly delayed harvest to enhance the varietal characteristics and aromatic richness. The grapes are harvested manually in the early hours of the day to preserve their freshness thanks to the low temperature, with the selection of each individual bunch in the field; they are then transported to the cellar in perforated containers to guarantee the best fragrance and integrity of the bunches. In the Cellar the grapes are subjected to soft pressing to obtain a flower must which is followed by natural decanting. Fermentation takes place with selected yeasts at a controlled temperature of 18°C in special stainless steel tanks specially designed for Musivum . 50 %del volume completes the last third of the fermentation in the barrique cellar, in 50 hl second passage oak barrels, where it also remains for the refinement phase. The other half, on the other hand, completes the fermentation in steel, where it continues with the refinement phase on the lees. During the refinement, the fine lees consisting mainly of yeasts are put back into suspension every 15 days for the first 3 months and every 2 months thereafter , until the time of re-assembly of the two portions, i.e. the fraction partially fermented and aged in wood with the one fermented and aged in steel

Oggi le zone vocate sono diminuite per garantire la sua migliore selezione, sono i pendii rivolti a Sud/Est e Sud/Ovest attorno alla Strada del Vino.
