Zirpoli - Irpinia Coda di Volpe Doc
The Irpinia Coda di Volpe Zirpoli is obtained from the grapes of the Barbassano vineyard. The Coda di Volpe grapes, harvested at the end of September, follow the vinification in white, where the grape seeds and marc are immediately separated from the must. The wine obtained ages in steel for 5 months on the fine lees and then in the bottle. In the glass the wine has an intense straw yellow colour. On the nose there are hints of pear, apple, pineapple and banana, as well as mineral notes. The sip is dry, well balanced and with a fairly persistent finish. Perfect as an accompaniment to savory fish appetizers, roasted and baked fish.
