Through expert vinification, the historical native grape varieties express freshness, minerality, and the richness that the volcanic soil and the warm sun of our hills develop in a synthesis of a soft, balanced variety of floral sensations.

 

The typically straw yellow colour shows its youth with greenish highlights. Delicate floral aromas blend in the mouth, sustained by a fresh acidity and followed by its characteristics lightly bitter finish. A friendly, joyful wine, with a consistent, integral simplicity, always a good accompaniment.

The Tenuta Le Velette farm is a single estate of about 270 hectares, in view of the city of Orvieto, at an elevation that varies from 270 to 330 meters above sea level.

 

Approximately 130 hectares has been identified and planted with vineyards, which, depending on their exposure, are used for the different varieties of vines that best benefit from each of these positions. Although they are long-lived, even grape vines age and must be removed. The planning of the soil regeneration periods, approximately every 30 years, as the vineyards grow older, allows the growing of annual crops for this purpose.

 

Even if they are intended for a future new vineyard, or are used to cultivate those areas whose positions do not make them usable otherwise, they help keep the farm diversified and give the landscape a natural balance that is clearly visible and perceptible, with vineyards being greatly preeminent.
