TASTING NOTES

Great balance between freshness of the grape, soil and the richness of the fruit. The large bouquet, with characteristic fruity and floral notes, is enriched with complexity by long aging (12 months) sur lie. The result is a dry wine of great finesse, elegance and persistence.

Pairings

Perfectly paired with vegetable risotto, like asparagus or porcini mushrooms, fish dishes, fresh cheeses like buffalo mozzarella.

THE MAKER: Cantina Sanpaolo

Cantina Sanpaolo is in a hilly area between the provinces of Avellino and Benevento, with a wide variety of soil types in the vineyards, ranging from clayey to chalky and sandy and influenced by the volcanic ash from the mighty volcano Vesuvius. The vines grow at altitudes up to 700 metres, and receive very intense sunlight during the day, while the temperatures drop quite dramatically at night, making the grapes even more aromatic.
The winery has modern equipment for producing whites and reds and for aging in the beautiful cellar containing 65 barrels of different sizes: barriques, tonneaus and oak casks.
