Tua Rita Lodano Blanc.
If the Redigaffi and the Syrah are creatures of Virgil, the Lodano is a creature of Rita.
She is the one who bet that in this climate and in these lands you could get a particularly charming white wine with an atypical blend for the area, Traminer, Riesling and Chardonnay.
It has 6 months of maturation in barriques and is produced, every year, in a limited number of bottles.
VARIETIES: Equal parts of Traminer, Riesling and Chardonnay.
FIRST VINTAGE: 1999
MATURATION: For about six months in new French barriques.
DESIGNATION: I.G.T. Toscana Bianco.
SOIL: Markedly clayey with a fairly significant pebble fraction. The higher plots are more pebbly, those lower down have more silt.
