Chiavennasca is the local name for a clone of Nebbiolo grown almost exclusively in Lombardia (northern Italy). The winemaker at Conti Sertoli Salis creates this opulent white wine by vinifying the grapes without skin contact during maceration (the skins are the part of the berries that impart color to the wine). The resulting wine retains the nobility of the Nebbiolo grape but is fresh and clean on the palate. Wines vinified “in bianco” or “in white” have been made in Lombardia for as long as anyone can remember and represent a connection to ancient winemaking techniques (in antiquity, all wines were vinified “in bianco” in order to avoid bacteria present on the skins of the grapes after harvest).
