San Polo di Piave, Treviso. The Piave DOC production area is located between the Treviso hills and Friuli, with Montello to the north and the Venetian lagoon to the south, along the axis of the Piave river. The adequately ventilated and bright territory favours the fulfillment of all the vegetative-productive functions of the vineyards and the terroir is characterised by clay soil and mineral salts.

In stainless steel vats in contact with the skins at a controlled temperature. Ageing is in the bottle for 3 months.

Manzoni Bianco 6.0.13 is the most famous among the clones created by professor Luigi Manzoni, principal of the Viticulture and Oenology School of Conegliano, during a series of experiments conducted in the thirties on genetic improvement of grapevines by cross-breeding. Manzoni Bianco 6.0.13, an autochthonous grapevine of the Treviso province, is a crossing between Riesling Renano and Pinot Bianco. Manzoni Bianco has the ability to adapt easily to very different microclimates and soils, even if it prefers hillside, deep, fresh, not hard and fertile grounds, but it has a measured production. The grape is medium-small, rounded, green-yellow and its skin is thick, dense and aromatic. The numbers after grape type refer to location of the vineyards for the original grafts; for example, 6.0.13 refers to the row, vine and vineyard.
