The Story

A magnificent and intensely mineral-driven Central Italian white wine displaying a bright straw-yellow color with shimmering golden highlights. The complex and highly sophisticated nose opens with a gorgeous bouquet of yellow pear, golden apple, and candied citrus peel, seamlessly woven with notes of white wildflowers, wild herbs, and a distinctive chalky, saline minerality. On the medium-to-full-bodied palate, it offers exceptional structure and depth, beautifully balancing a rich, slightly honeyed texture with a piercing, vibrant acidity that culminates in a long, savory, and remarkably crisp finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs flawlessly with rich seafood risottos, grilled white fish, pan-seared scallops, roasted poultry with herbs, and semi-aged goat or sheep cheeses.

 

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Aromas of wild herb, yellow stone fruit and citrus come to the forefront on this gorgeous white. Showing finesse and energy, the tangy, delicious palate features ripe apricot, grapefruit and fennel seed alongside notes of dried mint and bitter almond. Crisp acidity and mineral notes recalling oyster shell lend racy tension. A serious white that shows the great potential of this denomination.
