In 1078, Matilda of Canossa donated the fief of Usigliano to the Bishop of Lucca, changing its name forever to Usiglian del Vescovo. With this wine, a synthesis of tradition and innovation, we aim to pay homage to that event and to the millennia-old history of Usiglian del Vescovo. A wine that will captivate you, year after year, with its unique character, born from aging in barriques and amphorae.

VINIFICATION
The MilleEsettantotto is obtained through the gentle pressing of whole clusters of Chardonnay and Viognier grapes. After a brief maceration of the skins, the grapes undergo natural settling, and the must is then initiated into fermentation. The MilleEsettantotto is then aged in small oak barrels and subsequently in terracotta amphorae.

TASTING NOTES
In the glass, the MilleEsettantotto exhibits its lively pale yellow color with greenish hues. Fine and complex bouquet. On the palate, it reveals a harmony of fresh and sweet notes combined with a considerable body and persistence. This wine is destined to undergo significant evolution over time.

PAIRINGS
Suitable for refined and spicy seafood dishes, dishes featuring white truffle, and mushroom risottos. It’s also perfect with white meats.
