The wine Inzolia Molino a Vento from Tenute Orestiadi winery
The Inzolia Molino a Vento, a standout from the Tenute Orestiadi winery, is crafted from pure Inzolia grapes, meticulously cultivated in the estate’s vineyards. These vineyards are set on dark, alluvial soils, rich in clay and sand, which impart unique and unmistakable characteristics to the wine.
The Winemaking
The grape harvest is carried out with great care and dedication, being strictly manual to ensure that only the best, hand-selected grapes make their way to the winery. Here, the vinification process takes place entirely in stainless steel, a method that preserves and enhances the freshness and integrity of the grapes. The wine is aged for about three months in steel tanks, a crucial step that allows it to develop its distinctive aromas and character. Following this, after being blended and bottled, the Inzolia rests for a few more months in the cellar, further enriching itself and reaching its full expression.
