A deep and intriguing white wine, made from Rossese Bianco grapes handled and vinified by Manzone Giovanni, in Langhe land.
The grapes come from two single vineyards, located in the Castelletto mga and in the Gramolere mga, in Monforte d’Alba.
The vineyard dates back to 1982 and a new implantation was made in 2011.
The exposure is east-northeast; the soil is calcareous and sandy, with layers of red clay.
The steep slope of the hill only allows manual processing.
The manual harvest is made in late september/early october to ensure the perfect ripening of the grapes.
A short maceration with the skins before pressing, then the natural fermentation starts and lasts for about 30 days.
After the required aging in tonneaux, the wine is bottled during waning moon.
Few thousand bottles of Langhe Rossese Bianco “Rosserto” are produced and sold about two years after the harvest.
This white wine is rare and unique.
