Space
Infinite and infinitesimal, visible and invisible, it is everywhere. In the pupils that yearn towards the horizon, shrinking as they see the sunrise in the east or the sunset in the west, marking the end of a day dedicated to the vineyard. Love for the land and devotion to the soil: powerful, tangible ways to perceive space, nature’s ultimate poetic and artistic expression. It envelops and protects the terroir, the vineyard, the grower and every living thing. And it is here, in the Valle del Lupo, that this animal is the lord of his space, and has the power to endow the land it protects with fertility and abundance. It is here, in this place, that Corte del Lupo Bianco is born, a wine that grows in the immensity of the earth but is aged in small oak barrels.

Technical notes
“Corte del Lupo Bianco” is made from grapes harvested in 13 vineyards, whose exposure, clones and ages ensure the expression of fullness and integrity typical of a white wine in the Ca’ del Bosco style. The perfect marriage: the fragrance of Chardonnay grapes and the elegance of Pinot Bianco. In line with the Ca’ del Bosco Method, the grapes are hand-picked and placed in small crates on which a code is immediately stamped, just before they are cold-stored. Each bunch is selected by expert eyes and hands, and then goes through our exclusive “berry spa,” a special whirlpool-like wash for grape bunches, consisting of three soaking tanks, followed by thorough drying. Only the free-run juice is used for this wine, about ¼ of which is aged in small oak barrels, used the year before for Chardonnay. The remaining must is fermented in steel vats. After 8 months of aging on their lees, without malolactic fermentation, the two fractions are assembled. The wine is then gravity-bottled, in a most natural manner. Thanks to our innovative long-nozzle filling tubes, the wine will rise from the bottom without lamination or shaking, and will not suffer from oxidative stress. No sulfites are added at this stage, to guarantee integrity and wholesomeness.
Finally, each bottle is marked with a unique code, to ensure traceability.
