Colour straw yellow with cedar zest-coloured streaks. |
|
Bouquet authentic and direct, playing on nuances of fresh and fragrant fruit with rhythmic references to bitter orange, acacia and an early white peach; |
|
Flavour gustatory sequence evocative of the time it is inspired by, fresh entry with the layers of material supported by a good structure that occupies the palate only in the second instance and then retreats discovering the incredible flavor, memory of the salty Pleistocene lake that covered the hills of Torgiano |
Dynamic and contemporary white wine that looks back to its origins, to a time when white wines played between ease of drinking, layers of fruitness and the dining table without ever hiding their soul, telling the story of slow living at the rhythm of nature.

Curiosity
The name of this wine is closely linked to that of the town of Torgiano. This derives from a tower present in Roman times and dedicated to the god Janus, then rebuilt in medieval times which is today its symbol, the Tower of Janus.
Torre di Giano 62 goes from the blend of Vermentino, Grechetto, and Trebbiano (introduced with the 2011 harvest) to one of Trebbiano and Grechetto, thus managing to show the origins of the denomination and the wine in a contemporary key.
The 62 indicates 1962, the first official harvest in which Torre di Giano was produced.
THE LABEL AND THE BOTTLE
The design has varied over the years, according to the graphic taste of the times, but has always recalled the territory: from the very first editions with the Torgiano tower, to the allegory of the grape harvest from one of the panels of the Fontana Maggiore of Perugia, by Nicola and Giovanni Pisano, 13th century, sealing the link between art and wine.
Over the years, the label has undergone revisions up to the current graphics, a common thread that takes us back to the origins with the number 62 recalling the first official production harvest and the green Renana bottle combined with the font recalling the first vintages of Torre di Giano.
