Elegance and harmony
Tenuta del Gelso's Albana Secco is a balanced and elegant wine, which stands out in freshness and slowly fades into floral scents, to then evolve into yellow fruit.
The vinification involves the soft pressing of the destemmed grapes, with cold maceration for 12 hours. The aging takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, with frequent bâtonnage.
