Winemaking The grapes are hand-harvested in small crates (maximum of 19 kg) in order to keep the grapes as intact as possible. The grapes are then immediately pressed in a pneumatic press, and the best part of the must is transferred to temperature-controlled vats for the start of the alcoholic fermentation, using only indigenous yeast. The wine is fined (vegan-friendly), filtered and a small amount of sulfur is added before bottling.
Pairings Niçoise Salad, goat cheese flat bread, A night with friends 

Elegant and attention-worthy just like the lady on the label! Straw yellow color with green highlights, intense floral nose of orange blossom and chamomile. Fresh, fragrant, light, lively and persistent – serve well chilled with a wide variety of dishes or just on its own.

About the Producer
Run by Massimiliana Spinola, L'Azienda Vitivinicola Castello di Tassarolo is situated in the commune of Tassarolo in the heart of Gavi in Piedmont and consists of 17 hectares of vineyards that surround the winery. The variety of vines cultivated on the estate are "Cortese di Gavi", Barbera and some Cabernet Sauvignon. The Spinola family has inhabited the castle in Tassarolo and has been making wine from these vineyards since the 14th century! In 2006, Massimiliana and her team began developing biodynamic methods of viticulture that guarantees the maximum respect for nature and the
environment. Massimiliana's former partner Henry, born and raised in London, was the first to develop working heavy horses in the vineyards in the North of Italy. He is collaborating with other experts in the field, in designing and developing draught
equipment for biodynamic farming methods in the vineyards. He has also been a passionate student of Rudolf Steiner's philosophies for over 20 years, and applies these methods to his work in the vines.

The compelling label of this brand new Jenny & Francois collab is based on a portrait that the iconic Andy Warhol made of Orsola Spinola, a relative of the Castello di Tassarolo owner and winemaker Massimiliana Spinola.
