The straw yellow Conte della Vipera wine is produced from Sauvignon Blanc and Sèmillon grapes. The grape clusters were hand harvested and immediately brought to the cellar where they were cooled down before pressing to preserve characteristic varietal aromas. The grape varieties were fermented separately in stainless steel tanks at a low controlled temperature. Following fermentation the wine was blended, so that the fresh, vertical and slightly aromatic Sauvignon wine was blended with soft, tropical Sèmillon, the two grape varieties complete each other.
