Pinot Blanco, Pinot Grigio, Tocai, and Chardonnay. After careful selection, the grapes are barrel fermented in used barriques of Allier and Nevers wood. The wine is aged for six months in barrique with an additional six months in bottle. Pale yellow in color, very clear. The nose is intense and fruity with hints of peach and subtle vanilla. Full-bodied, balanced and dry.
"Fausto Maculan, the master showman, never ceases to amaze me. He produces very high-quality wines at all price points. The Pinot & Toi is a blend of Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio, Tocai and Chardonnay. There is a wonderful balance of fruit and acidity with a structured complexity that makes for a delicious blend. Aromas of pear and citrus finish crisp and refreshing, making this great as an apéritif or as an accent to shellfish or grilled fish." -Wine Enthusiast Top 100 Values
For three generations the Maculan family has been selecting and vinifying the best grapes in Breganze, an enchanting village set like a small jewel at the foot of the Alps in Italy’s Veneto region. The surrounding mountains protect the area from cold winds, creating a perfect microclimate for the cultivation of vineyards. But it is Fausto Maculan’s drive and commitment, rather than any accident of nature, which set these wines apart and distinguish Maculan as an innovative and dynamic winery.
Designed by Fausto himself, the winery is one of the most stunning small wineries in Italy, an amazing mixture of ingenuity and style. The new winery provides the theatre for a marvelous combination of antique traditions and modern techniques using the latest winemaking technology. Long-held family traditions are respected: from using specially selected vineyards and the careful selection of the bunches of grapes, to aging in new, small oak barrels and conserving the grapes on racks for the production of Torcolato. The fusion of tradition and innovation results in a selection of fresh and fruity whites, well-structured reds and delicious dessert wines.
