The 2017 was exceptional, and this is almost as good.

Yet I was similarly, if not more, impressed with this mix of Sauvignon Blanc, Vermentino as well as Verdicchio made from tiny parcels along the Tuscan coast. Wine maker Olga Fusari says, “The extensive harvest confirmed desirable to the fragrant expression of the white wine, located in the extreme notes of citrus and also unique fruit gone along with by the fragrance of freshly trimmed yard as well as asparagus.” Thankfully I didn’t discover any asparagus in the wine, yet here is a Sauvignon Blanc with the very same distinction as the best Trebbiano Abruzzo. It has layers of fruit and intricacy, ideal offered with a pasta like pastas alla vongole.
