Isolina

Bianco di Pitigliano Superiore d.o.c.

Grapes: Trebbiano 70%, Sauvignon 20%, Greco 10%

Alc. 13.5%

Mostly made with Trebbiano, blended with Sauvignon Blanc and Greco. The grapes come from Isolina single vineyard in Sovana, grown as Guyot (Greco and Trebbiano) and spurred cordon (Sauvignon blanc) on highly tufaceous soils.

Grapes are hand harvested and selected, and the different varieties are vinified separately. As the grapes are destemmed, the must is macerated with the skins from 12 to 24 hours, then the must is fermented at low temperature with its natural yests in our cool underground ancient cellar. Fermentation can last over two months and is followed by another two months on lees. The different wines are blended to make our Bianco di Pitigliano before bottling.
It is straw yellow with fresh menthol, white flowers and white fruits perfumes; dry, umami, with a good body and long persistence.

Our wines

Sassotondo’s wines endeavor to communicate the power and mistery of the land they come from: the local varieties of vines combined with an unique environment, with the tufo stone that appears everywhere, make wines that are fine and elegant, naturally concentrated, sapid and spicy.
