ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
In 2005, Marco Cecchini established a negociant business, buying grapes from carefully selected small-scale local growers and vinifying them in his modern winery. Here, his family releases D'Orsaria wines from the winery at Orsaria, near Premariacco. A beautifully soft and rich white wine, silky in nuances, with aromas reminiscent of ripe fruits. A ripe, intense bouquet, abounding in flavors of both citrus and tropical fruits with delicate earthy and mineral notes.
