Don Chisciotte Zampaglione is made from Fiano grapes, from vineyards cultivated at an altitude of about 800 metres on clay and volcanic soils. Healthy grapes, only copper and sulphur are used in the vineyard, which are harvested when fully ripe.
After destemming and crushing the bunches, spontaneous fermentation starts in steel containers, with maceration on the skins for about 10 days. The liquid matures a few months in steel before bottling. The Don Chisciotte fills the glass with its golden robe.
From the first smell, it alternates notes such as lime zest, chestnut and white flowers with hints of flint.
It is a wine that plays on finesse and flavour, giving it depth without weighing it down. It is very agile thanks to its refined saline texture.
The Tal Luc Passito wine from Lis Neris comes from vineyards on the estate that are over 25 years old.
The plots are situated on a gravelly plateau of calcareous matrix, characterised by poor and very draining soils, which naturally limit the yields. At the end of the harvesting operations, the most beautiful, healthy and ripe bunches of grapes are left to dry for a period of 120/130 days in an environment with controlled temperature and humidity, so as to favour the slow dehydration and concentration of sugars and aromas.
The grapes are pressed very softly and the dense, rich must is fermented in French oak barriques.
The wine matures, again in barriques, and completes its ageing with a long period in bottles before release.
