Tenuta del Melo extends for 20 hectares with young and well exposed Cortese and Barbera vines, cultivated according to biodynamic principles. The plants sink their roots in the marl's mineral soil, typical of this area. The vine rows are turfed in order to deeply oxygenate the roots and there is no use of chemicals neither in the vineyards nor in the wine cellar.
Colour is straw yellow, with greenish hints. The aroma offers a particularly fine mineral feeling and notes of honey and candied citron. Mouthfeel is lively, balanced, with a fresh acidity, which increases its persistence and favours its drinkability.
