TASTING NOTES
Verzare is a contrada in the municipality of Lapio, in the province of Avellino. Laura De Vito is absolutely fascinated by zoning and for her wines in the cellar she has chosen to follow the Cru route, hence this wine is named after the contrada in which the grapes are grown. The vineyard grows at 550 m above sea level. Harvesting of the Fiano grapes from the Verzare vineyard generally starts in the second week of October, completely by hand, and the bunches are immediately brought to the cellar and gently pressed. Fermentation in thermoregulated steel tanks is followed by a long maturation, also in steel, of 9 months. Once bottled, Verzare remains in the bottle for a subsequent refinement of at least 20 months before release. This wine is characterised by typical hints of mountain herbs, kiwi and mandarin that are gracefully enhanced by the long ageing process. Each wine from a single vineyard of Laura De Vito is unique and characteristic.
