LE MONDE
Le Monde lies between the banks of the Livenza and Meduna rivers, close to the border between the provinces of Treviso and Pordenone in Friuli Grave. The winery headquarters, built in the eighteenth century maintains the architectural characteristics of the time. Originally property of the Pistoni family, the wine farm together with the vineyards was acquired Alex Maccan in 2008.

Winemaker’s Notes
Amber-shot yellow color with light coppery tinges. The nose reveals a delicate structure, characterized by a wide range of clearly distinguishable floral notes. The wine has supple structure, sustained by a distinctly tangy freshness. Delicate, lingering hints of white-fleshed fruit on the palate persist through the finish.
