Vivo is a wine that keeps the promise of its name: alive, fresh, fun. A 100% Pigato that sheds its still white wine persona to don a delicate yet tantalizing bubble, perfect for any social occasion. Born from vineyards located at 400 meters above sea level in Località Bonfigliara, with southern exposure, this wine is the most playful and immediate expression of a symbolic Ligurian grape variety, capable of offering moments of pure pleasure and lightheartedness.
Three days of maceration on the skins, spontaneous fermentation in steel with indigenous yeasts at a controlled temperature, soft pressing. The following year, bottling with the addition of must from the current harvest to restart fermentation, and finally an aging in the bottle for at least 6 months. The result is a wine that can be served in two ways: decant it to enjoy it in its purity, or gently shake the bottle to savor it in its fullness with its lees.

Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Pale straw yellow color with greenish reflections, slightly hazy if served with the lees. Fine and lively perlage.
- Nose: The olfactory profile is fresh and inviting. Notes of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white flowers, aromatic herbs (rosemary, sage) emerge, along with a mineral background that recalls rock and the sea. If served with the lees, hints of bread dough and yeast are added, enriching the bouquet.
- Palate: The entry is fresh and tantalizing, with a delicate but lively bubble that massages the palate. The maceration provides a slight structure and a pleasant, barely hinted tannic note. The acidity is vibrant and supports the sip with elegance, offering a freshness that invites a second glass. The finish is clean, citrusy, with a very pleasant mineral closure. A vibrant, fun wine, perfect for every occasion.
