Tasting Notes

Unique type of Venetian white wine in which the intense aromas of Sauvignon are paired with the elegance of Garganega, which provides its characteristically long aftertaste with an almondy twist on the finish. Typical Sauvignon fruitiness with hints of pears. On the palate good structure balanced with refreshing acidity, and a dry finish.
