90 Points (Best Buy), Wine Enthusiast
“Ginger, white florals, and papaya show on the nose. Almond skin, and citrus work well together on the palate as fresh acidity rushes through at the end of each sip.”
90 Points, James Suckling
This white has both herbal and smoky undertones to the aromas of lime peel, smoked almonds and vanilla. It’s medium-bodied and creamy with fresh acidity. Vegan. Drink now. Screw cap.
If you haven’t seen, Franco Bernabei passed away a few weeks back. We lost one of Italy’s all-time great winemakers. A man whose philosophy was simple yet revolutionary: “First the vineyard, then the wine.” Three generations of family in wine. A degree in viticulture and enology. Consultant to some of Italy’s most prestigious estates: Folonari, Felsina, Fontodi, Sartori, Guicciardini Strozzi. The man didn’t just make great wine. He taught winemakers not just in Italy, but all over the world how to truly respect the land.
A bunch of you have been asking for the Monte Antico Rosso to come back. It’s back. And this time I’m doing something I’ve never done before – I’m pairing it with the Monte Antico Bianco, which I’m offering to you for the very first time.
