Method & Production
Tasting notes
Bright, light straw color. Fragrant, fresh spring flowers on the nose and fresh fruit-driven palate of green apple, pear, white peach and grapefruit. Dry, crisp, and mineral, with a slight bitterness to the finish which is typical of Vernaccia di San Gimignano. The fruit/mineral balance is so yummy! Very clean and precise.
Food matching
Works excellently as an aperitif or match with vegetable tempura, soup, fish or white meat dishes and fresh cheeses.
