A 100% Chardonnay from north to north-west facing vineyards at 150–200 metres elevation in the municipality of Provaglio d'Iseo, on Lombard siliceous soils rich in calcareous marl. Hand harvested in small crates with in-vineyard selection. Harvest from late August to early September at 80 ql/ha.

Grapes are cold-stabilised at 4°C for 24–36 hours before soft pressing of whole bunches at no more than 50% of free-run must. Fermentation proceeds at 15–16°C, with lees ageing on the cuvée incorporating small proportions of wine fermented in second- and third-passage barriques. Aged on lees in bottle for a minimum of 36 months prior to disgorgement.

Appearance: Golden yellow.
Nose: Toasted bread crust, hazelnut, and fallen fruit, finishing with pleasant spice.
Palate: Well-balanced with saline drive, cedar acidity, and mineral notes.
