Food Matching Note:
Drink by itself or to accompany most Mediterranean influenced dishes, especially those with fish or tomatoes, this is also a great foil for spicy Eastern dishes. Delicious with toro sashimi or daube of baby octopus.
Tasting Note:
Pale straw yellow in colour with golden highlights and ripe aromas of white tropical fruits and citrus. The palate is quite full-bodied and textured, with flavours of fresh peaches, apricots and citrus rind with balancing mineral elements and a dry, crisp, refreshing finish.
Vinification Note:
Coda di Volpe, Fiano and Falanghina sourced exclusively from vineyards surrounding Mount Vesuvius with poor volcanic soils. The whole bunches are hand picked during the first ten days of October, de-stalked and crushed into stainless steel tanks for cold settling. After racking from the gross lees the must is fermented at a cool, controlled temperature and then aged for a few months in steel before bottling.
