TASTING NOTES
A deepish yellow with golden highlights. Richly perfumed, with notes of wild flowers and suggestions of ripe apples and greengages. Hints of acacia honey and vanilla contribute even greater complexity. Rich, concentrated, mouth-filling and faintly balsamic, yet invitingly fresh and persistent.
Pairings
This wine is excellent with fish and vegetable-based pasta or rice dishes, bean soups, fish, seafood, grilled meats or soft cheeses. It is delicious with fried eggs with truffles. Serve at 12°-13°C.

THE MAKER: La Cappuccina
Since 1890, the Tessari family has been making wine at its La Cappuccina estate at Costalunga di Monteforte d’Alpone, to the east of Verona. The family decided to carry out all of the different phases of wine production – from the vine to the bottling – according to Organic precepts since 1985. That's why they are considered organic pioneers and regarded as one of the leading producers of organic wine in Italy. The day-to-day running of the estate is now in our hands, the 4th generation.
