Conte Vistarino's Merlino was born in vineyards located on the Rocca de' Giorgi estate, in the province of Pavia. It is produced entirely with Pinot Grigio grapes, selected and harvested only by hand in 20kg boxes. First of all, the grapes remain for one night in a cold room at 10°C. The grapes are pressed to obtain the must, which remains in contact with the lees for 48 hours. Subsequently it is fermented in steel at a controlled temperature, where it remains for approx. 6 months, until bottling. In the glass the wine has a golden yellow colour. The nose opens with a rich and aromatic bouquet, characterized by notes of white peach, plum and apricot. On the palate it is structured, with a full and round body. This white wine is pleasant as an aperitif and also goes well with white meats, fish and rich salads.
