Minini

Delicate and crisp, with plenty of citrus fruit flavours.

Producer Information

Minini was established in 1920 when Mr. Francesco Minini, a young soldier, came back to Italy after the First World War. With little money, and a great determination he decided to start a wine business in a rural economy and a poor market. At the beginning of the 1960’s the big growth of the Company forced the Mininis’ to move into a new Winery, which is still the current Head Office.

During all these years the Minini Family never forgot its tight link with the land, developing new cooperation projects with growers all over the main production areas of Italy. This allowed the Family to widen the portfolio of wines to support its introduction on the International markets. Their strategy has been to source new wines from the unique ancient vineyards typical of Italy, with the new technologies of wine-making and Italian tradition.

Wine Making

A selection of premium quality grapes were hand harvested from mature vineyards in the Veneto, northern Italy. The grapes were crushed and gently pressed and the juice allowed to settle and clarify before cool fermentation at 16 to 18C in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine spends 3 to 6 months on fine lees before bottling.

Tasting Note

A delicate and refreshing wine, with fruity aromas and fresh green apple and citrus flavours.

Food Matching

Delicious as aperitif, it is ideal with fish, with white meats and fresh cheeses.
