The Tenuta Grimani estate lies at the foot of the Lessini Mountains in the town of Roncà. It's a winery with a long history. Purchased from the eponymous family in the early decades of the last century, the historic soil proved ideal for growing white grape varieties. The family business continues to invest and improve, resulting in consistently high quality. The vineyards are cultivated with passion, love, and respect for nature, handed down from generation to generation. The company owns 13 hectares, characterized by the presence of volcanic soil, ideal for producing energetic, mineral, and characterful wines. The climate is also exceptionally well-suited to viticulture. The mountains protect the vineyards from the harsh cold. In summer, the fresh breeze from the cellar provides the necessary cooling, thanks to the abundance of sunshine. This is also what makes the wines so aromatic.
The Garganega grapes are harvested entirely by hand at the end of September. They are then brought to the winery where a soft pressing takes place. The resulting must is then immediately cooled. Fermentation follows in stainless steel tanks at a controlled low temperature. The wine then ages for several months in stainless steel tanks and another two months in the bottle before release.
Le Macete Garganega has a straw-yellow color with greenish reflections. The aroma is intense, with delicious aromas of apricot, apple, and light notes of balsamic and eucalyptus. This is complemented by a subtle note of honey. It complements each other beautifully and immediately seduces you to the first sip. The taste is balanced and pleasantly smooth. It fills the mouth with a very slight bitter aftertaste and nutty notes.
