Description
Former Italian motocross champion Stefano Perrone, from Castiglione Tinella in the heart of the 'Moscato area' in Piedmont, makes the most delicious wines. Stefano's specialty are the feather-light, sparkling dessert wines from the moscato grape and the beautiful red and white wines with Piedmontese grapes.
Stefano Perrone makes De Gi from chardonnay and moscato grapes and in some years also with a little viognier. It is a dry white wine with a lot of aroma, coming from the moscato. The chardonnay provides the filling in the taste. Aromas of tropical fruit, muscat grapes and wild flowers. Fresh and round in the taste, with juicy fruit and a clean finish. The origins of vineyards are located in Castiglione Tinella. The harvest begins with a strict manual selection where the best bunches of Muscat grapes and Chardonnay are chosen. After picking, the grapes come to the celiar in small containers. One works quickly, to minimize the time to maintain skin integrity and protect odors. After fermentation in steel tanks, it matures for 3-4 months in a tank with its own natural yeasts.
The Elio Perrone Gi Bianco is lively, aromatic and exuberant, developing notes of serious complexity over time. Exotic fruit, peach, sage and acacia honey notes, it yields over time the scent of minerai and dried fruit. Subtle, enveloping structure, with an acidity that provides liveliness in the mouth. Elio Perrone Gi has a wonderful aging ability, improving complexity from the second year and increasing further within 4-5 years. Delicious with raw fish, paella, white meat, spicy dishes (saffron).

In Italy you don't just leave the family business. So Stefano Perrone, former Italian motocross champion, also went overboard. In the Piedmont, this family has been making delicious Moscato wines for generations. The 13 hectares of vineyards on the hills of Castiglione Tinella are mainly planted with barbera, moscato and brachetto (an almost forgotten native grape, also called the red moscato). Winemaker Stefano Perrone, since he took over in 1989, has ensured that the quality of the grapes has risen considerably and modernized the techniques in the wine cellar.
