'Mjere Bianco' Salento Bianco IGP Michele Calò ' Sons 2022

Mjere Bianco Salento PGI is a wine produced by the Apulian winery Michele Calò & Figli . It is obtained from the vinification of grapes of the native Verdeca vine, to which a smaller percentage of Chardonnay is added. The vineyards are cultivated with the traditional sapling system. On the Salento lands, composed largely of rock, tuff and clay, the vines sink their roots to find the necessary nourishment. The early harvest takes place at the beginning of September, which allows for the selection and collection of bunches that retain good acidity. Once in the cellar, the grapes are gently pressed. The subsequent alcoholic fermentation involves monitoring the temperature and lasts about a week. As with winemaking, aging also takes place in steel vats, where the wine rests for a few months before bottling. Mjere Bianco Salento PGI is a ready-to-drink wine, to be enjoyed young to savor aromas and freshness.
