Scarpa Monferrato Bianco

A magnificent Northern Italian white wine displaying a deep straw yellow color with brilliant golden hints and greenish reflections. Masterfully crafted by the historic Scarpa estate from 100% estate-grown Timorasso grapes planted on the high-altitude clay ridges of the "I Bricchi" vineyard, this exceptional expression beautifully champions Piedmont’s great resurrected native white variety. The warm, intense nose opens with a complex bouquet of ripe yellow peaches, nectarines, and fresh green apples, layered with distinctive regional characters of wild field flowers, wild thyme, lemon zest, and a persistent hint of flinty smokiness. On the palate, it balances a structural, full-bodied stone fruit density and a racy, linear alpine acidity with a remarkably powerful, tactile mouthfeel, concluding in an incredibly long, dry finish defined by an elegant streak of petrol-like complexity and salty, chalky minerality.

Food Pairing: Pairs flawlessly with fresh or medium-aged cheeses, mixed salads with grilled poultry, pan-seared white fish, traditional herb risottos, and cured meats.
