Description
Cayega is Tenuta Carretta’s present and future: it is balance, complexity, structure and pleasantness. A great interpretation
of the potential of a grape symbolic of the territory, expressed
in a white wine perfect for any occasion.The vineyards of origin, planted in typical Roero sandy and calcareous soil are, part of the amphitheatre of vines that surrounds the winery buildings.
Vinification: in the cellar the grapes are processed whole with
soft crushing in a pneumatic press and cold maceration for 24 hours at a temperature of 10°C.
Fermentation takes place at low temperature (18-20°C) and ageing continues for about 6 months in stainless steel tanks, keeping the wine on the fine lees to increase its aromatic complexity and fullness on the palate.Ageing is then completed in the bottle.
Sensory profile: Straw yellow colour with golden highlights.
On the nose, the bouquet recalls ripe pears and white peaches, hawthorn flowers and acacia honey, with a hint of exotic fruit. In the mouth it is pleasantly enveloping, full and mineral,
with an acidity that gives freshness and a persistent aftertaste.
