Diletta Tonello Veneto Marachelle Frizzante Bianco NV

90% Durella, 10% Chardonnay Practicing Organic Veneto, Italy Silvia, Diletta has recently started her own micro wine project at her family’s winery, originally founded in 1980. Diletta grew up around the winery and then attended a high school focused on agriculture. She then went on to study winemaking in Padua. Following school, she spent a few years working harvests in other regions to broaden her experience before returning to the winery to assume the role of winemaker in 2013. Diletta focuses on indigenous grapes, namely Durella and Garganega. Durella is a grape gaining attention. It has everything that we like in a white wine: low alcohol, great acidity and freshness. This naturally high acidity also makes the grape well-suited for metodo classico, i.e. methode champenoise wines. The appellation for the still wines is Monti Lessini Durello and the appellation for the sparking is Lessini Durello (Durello used for the appellations though the grape is Durella). Diletta owns 12 hectar
