Vitovska – Azienda Agricola Kante – 2022

The Vitovska of the Kante farm

The Vitovska of the Kante farm is produced with 100% Vitovska grapes grown in the vineyards owned by the winery in the Trieste Karst at an altitude of approximately 250 meters above sea level. Here, the land is red and rich in limestone rock, which allows excellent drainage. Kante has been producing this wine for twenty-three years, and it is one of its flagships.

THE WINEMAKING

The harvest of the grapes is strictly manual, in boxes, and takes place only when the grapes have reached the desired level of ripeness. Once in the cellar, the grapes are wine made in white; the wine then ages for approximately twelve months in old exhausted French oak barriques and then for six months in stainless steel tanks. After blending and bottling, the wine rests in the cellar for a few more months before being released onto the market

Tasting the wine

Pale straw yellow. The aroma is delicate and fresh, with pleasant floral hints where the green apple stands out, leaving room for aromatic notes where rosemary and basil prevail. Fresh, savoury and mineral on the palate, it recalls the territory from which it comes very well. Long and persistent.

FOOD PAIRINGS

Excellent as an aperitif, it goes well with fish, vegetables and soft cheeses. Try it with the caprese salad.
