Description

Davide Vignato Col Moenia is a white wine from the Gambellara region in Veneto, Italy. The vineyards are situated on volcanic, basalt-rich soils at an average altitude of 250 meters, providing a unique mineral character to the wine. This cuvée is crafted exclusively from 100% Garganega grapes, sourced from vines averaging 40 years in age. The grapes are hand-harvested in mid-October, ensuring optimal ripeness. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with indigenous yeasts without the addition of sulfur. The wine matures on its fine lees in stainless steel tanks for seven months, undergoing periodic bâtonnage to enhance texture and complexity. Bottling is done without fining or filtration, adhering to natural winemaking principles.

Why we like it

Col Moenia presents an intense straw-yellow color. The nose offers a complex bouquet with hints of lilac, apricot, and aromatic herbs. The palate is fresh and mineral-driven, with a good structure and a slightly bitter almond finish.

Wine region

Veneto, Italy

Veneto is one of the most important wine regions in Italy. It is located in the northeastern corner of the peninsula. It borders Trentino-Alto Adige (north), Friuli-Venezia Giulia (northeast), Emilia-Romagna (south), and Lombardy (west).

Veneto's capital and most populous city is Venice, followed by Verona, Padua, Vicenza, Treviso, and Rovigo. The east coast of Lake Garda, the biggest Italian lake, is part of Veneto, as is the tract of Alpine foothills called Venetian Prealps.

Veneto is the leading Italian region for the quantity of wine produced, even though wine-producing regions such as Piedmont, Tuscany, Lombardy, Puglia, and Sicily all have bigger territories.

Some of its most famous wines are Amarone della Valpolicella, Valpolicella, Soave, and Prosecco. Other less-known but equally delicious wines are Recioto della Valpolicella, Recioto di Gambellara, Raboso del Piave, and Bardolino.

Veneto's main characteristic is perhaps the great variety of wine types produced, obtained mostly from indigenous grape varietals – Corvina, Glera, and Garganega being the most common.

This is due as much to its specific geography and climate as to rather peculiar winemaking techniques, such as the grape drying technique employed to make Amarone della Valpolicella, Veneto's most famous red wine.
