Description of the product
Behind the young winery La Nascosta is part of the Mastrojanni family, which is famous in Montalcino for its Brunello. The new project is primarily dedicated to white wines - on the volcanic soils of Monte Amiata near the Orcia River.
The grapes for Macchialuna grow on 1.5 hectares of vineyards. The white wine contains 60% Petit Manseng and 40% Sauvignon Blanc. Petit Manseng is native to small quantities, especially in southern France. The grape variety has small, hard-skinned berries with aromas of cinnamon, exotic fruits, honey and ripe peach. Sauvignon Blanc brings minerality, saltiness, some herbal aromas, hay to the wine. A very strict selection is carried out by hand picking. The grapes are then cooled to 6°C and cold maceration begins for 6-12 hours.
