The blend is Incrocio Manzoni 6.0.13 and Chardonnay, grown on a single one-hectare parcel of pebble-rich, well-draining alluvial soils. Vines are trained Guyot and are approximately 21 years old. The estate is certified organic and biodynamic by both Suolo e Salute and Demeter, and all vineyard work follows the Maria Thun biodynamic calendar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrapes are hand-harvested and macerated on the skins for three days. Fermentation is spontaneous using native yeasts, split between stainless steel tanks and terracotta amphora. The wine ages on its lees for roughly six months in those same vessels, then is moved outside over winter to cold-stabilize the tartaric acid naturally. It is bottled without fining, filtration, or added sulfites. Annual production is around 6,600 bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncrocio Manzoni 6.0.13 is a cross between Riesling Renano and Pinot Bianco, developed in the 1930s by Professor Luigi Manzoni at the Viticulture and Enology School of Conegliano, just a short distance from Casa Belfi's vineyards. In this wine, it contributes floral lift and aromatic freshness, while Chardonnay adds weight and structure. The short maceration gives the wine a faint amber-gold hue and gentle textural grip without heavy tannin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result pours slightly cloudy from being unfiltered, with aromas of Bartlett pear, pressed white flowers, and tangerine zest, followed by a palate that is fresh, saline, and mineral. It shows a touch of ginger and a lively, food-friendly acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Casa Belfi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32002625929309,"sku":"CABEBIAN18C","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/products\/casa-belfi-bianco-delle-venezie-chardonnay-natural-wine-primal-wine.jpg?v=1630817269","url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/products\/bianco-delle-venezie-casa-belfi-manzoni-chardonnay-italy-natural-wine","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
