Castello di Torre in Pietra, Lazio Bianco "Elephas", Lazio, Italy 2020
{organic} Trebbiano, Vermetino, Fiano
STONE FRUIT & LEMON, FRESH, SAVORY SALINE SUGGESTION
This unusual blend of Central Italian mainstays of Trebbiano and Vermentino along with the more typically southern Fiano is begging for the beach. It’s made by an estate that can boast twenty years of forward-thinking, organic production of grapes, grains, and olives, all situated on a coast largely unchanged for the past six centuries. Labor-intensive methods with the vines and minimal intervention in the cellar produce wines that are inspiringly sincere yet affordable.
Serving Suggestion: Spaghetti w/ clams & fish roe. Braised garlic & parsley-stuffed artichokes w/ white wine & lemon juice, finished w/ peas.
