VALTELLINA, ITALY

A note from the winemaker: Straw yellow in color with green highlights; intense floral aroma with notes of elder and robinia, hints of white-fleshed fruit, peach and ripe pear; spices recalling mediterranean herbs and a slight suggestion of sweetmeats. A sense of fulness on the palate with great acidic balance and a finish of natural minerality.

Food Pairings: Raw fish and shellfish, delicate-tasting cold cuts, goat-meat and young cheeses, white meats and mushrooms.
