Manzoni

Metodo Classico Brut
750 ml. – 1,5 lt.

The Manzoni Bianco grape, a combination of Renan Riesling and Pinot Bianco, realized in the early ‘900 by the eminent agronomist Luigi Manzoni, produces a unique, aromatic and elegant wine. The low productivity and the small bunches give concentration and body. For this reasons the Guicciardini have chosen Manzoni Bianco for their sparkling wine.
