Villa Papiano Tresche Sauvignon Bianco 2024

Villa Papiano Tresche Sauvignon Bianco 2024 is a biodynamic, unfiltered Sauvignon Blanc from the high-elevation slopes of Monte Chioda in Emilia-Romagna. Fresh, precise and distinctly mineral, it combines lively drinkability with a finely defined structure. The wine reflects Villa Papiano’s ambitious environmental restoration project, led by a young generation of winemakers committed to sustainable viticulture.

Tasting Notes
The wine presents a clean, bright expression typical of high-altitude Sauvignon Blanc. Its refined nose combines mineral nuances with delicate aromas of wild herbs, while the palate is linear, dry and remarkably pure, with fresh acidity and a measured, elegant structure. The sandy sandstone soils lend the wine a restrained, dry character rather than an overtly tropical style. Although enjoyable in its youth for its freshness and precision, the eight months of maturation in cement and oak, followed by at least six months in bottle, give the 2024 vintage notable ageing potential. It should develop additional complexity with careful cellaring while retaining its vibrant, mineral personality.

Production
The vineyards are located near Modigliana, on the slopes of Monte Chioda at 450–480 metres above sea level. The vines grow in sandy soils formed from sandstone rock, with the hillside setting providing favourable conditions for aromatic development. Produced according to biodynamic principles, the wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation using naturally occurring yeasts. It is then matured for eight months in a combination of cement tanks and oak barrels before resting for at least six further months in bottle. The wine is unfiltered, preserving its natural character and textural detail.

Food & Serving
Tresche Sauvignon Bianco is a natural partner for delicate fish dishes, shellfish, sushi and sashimi. Its freshness and mineral profile also work well with salads featuring fresh herbs, lightly seasoned vegetables and soft cheeses. Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C. Decanting is not necessary, although gently pouring the wine into a carafe can help it open; because it is unfiltered, careful handling is advisable if sediment has formed.
