VIAFRANCIA BIANCO

In the glass

Complexity, harmony, finesse: a noble monovarietal Viognier that shines bright like the Sicilian sun. Rich, intense, juicy and vibrant, a white wine endowed with powerful aromas and a dazzling salinity. The vineyard’s altitude, exposure, and vigour perfectly combine in shaping the profile of a wine that affirms the strong French vocation of Baglio di Pianetto.

Vinification

The grapes are transferred onto conveyor belts and selected before they are destemmed and lightly pressed. The free-run juice, after a preliminary natural decantation in steel tanks, is poured into wooden barrels for the fermentation start-up.

Ageing

9 months in first and second-fill French barrels on the lees. The three cuvees are then blended in steel tanks and left to rest until the mix stabilises.

Riserve

Born from the wish to pursue quality, uniqueness and innovation in wine-making, these native e and international mono-varietals are an elegant and refined expression of both the vine itself and the interaction with its terroir. Manual harvesting, the judicious use of aging wood, respect for the very essence of the product, are what makes Baglio di Pianetto’s Reserves the perfect wines to enrich a gourmet dinner or any special occasion.

Technical Notes

The grapes are picked in the course of three separate harvests: an early picking of slightly under-ripe fruit in order to obtain a higher acidic concentration; a second harvest to achieve optimal phenolic ripeness; a late third harvest of slightly raisined grapes, which impart sweetness and exceptional aromas.
