"We named our Dosage Zero "Essente" because "essente (what is being)" is that which exists in a specific place, here and now. It is, therefore, the essence of our land, its soul, and its meaning. It gathers and concentrates all the essences and existences, from the grapes to the smallest forms of life that constitute and contribute to the biodiversity in which our vines are cultivated and cared for. It reflects the meaning and reason behind our way of understanding wine, and our way of taking care of our land.”

Pale straw yellow.
Perlage

Flavour
With notes of slightly under-ripe white and yellow fruit, hints of flowers: from acacia to citrus, with a light perception of magnolia grandiflora. Honeyed notes (acacia and linden), and a slight spicy/balsamic vein (mint and Greek basil) and dried fruit (hazelnut and almond). A final touch of toasted bread crust and vanilla-scented sweets with hints of citrus marmalade (orange).
Taste
Excellent consistency and smoothness, very savory with a nice acidic streak well integrated into the wine's powerful structure, long, persistent, with a final impression of great softness and finesse.
Aftertaste: Reflects and confirms the sensations on the nose and palate, also with a slight vegetal/fruity hint of pear and under-ripe apple.
