OPIMIO 2020
FRIULI DOC AQUILEIA
A precious cru in the heart of Ca’ Bolani, a two-thousand-year history that began in the Rome of the consul Opimio, remembered by Petronio Arbitro for the quality of the wines produced under his rule. A representative terroir of DOC Aquileia and of the fine grapes of the Pinot Bianco bunches. These are the ingredients of this great white wine capable of creating intense sensations when young and deep emotions with aging. The unique vineyard is enclosed in a small extension admirably integrated into the environment: the old vines, the rapid pressing, the fermentation at low temperature, the patient aging in large barrels enhance its essential features. In the glass we will find the varietal nuances, the taste of ripe fruit, the accents of old wood, a strong scent and a broad sip.
