Elegant wine with good acidity, it develops pleasant notes of acacia honey as it ages.    

The vineyards are located between 120 and 140 meters above sea level with southern exposure. Guyot training system. Calcareous moraine soil, clayey with gravel. 

Perhaps, more than with the Cavalchina, the story begins with his grandfather Luciano; it was he who bought the first vineyards and then, in 1948, who built the winery that also housed a pomace distillery until 1967. The company was born as a game and a passion, an activity complementary to the main one of leather processing. Luciano was an eclectic person: he loved wine, but also lyric. This last passion of his led him to meet illustrious people, so much so that Maria Callas was his guest. His industry was among the few in Italy to manufacture football boots and this led him to also be a football player dealer. The stories of Luciano, Cavalchina and Custoza are linked and sometimes overlap. It was he who first, in 1962, decided to call the white wine of the area “Custoza”, he also sketched a first “recipe”: a wine obtained from the vines of Fernanda, Trebbiano and Garganega and led it to establish itself in the markets, then more important, of Rome and Milan.

Pairing Suggestions: Ideal for pairing with blue cheeses and dry pastries.

Maturation: Fermentation proceeds very slowly and, given the high sugar concentration following drying, usually stops with an alcohol content close to 15 degrees and residual sugars greater than 150 grams/liter. Bottling takes place in 375ml bottles.
