"Pale straw-green. Fresh citrus and herb aromas. Classically dry and linear, with intense flavors of lemon, quince and fresh herbs carrying through to the long, saline finish. I like this wine's purity and sharply chiseled delivery of aromas and flavors. A standout entry-level vernaccia."

Product Description:

"The Fontaleoni estate produces a crisp and lively version of Vernaccia by soft pressing, cold clarification and a slow, temperature controlled fermentation. A fresh and crisp yet elegant wine, It is delicate in flavor with a robust backbone, making it a perfect partner for food. Notes of lemon and some spice, with firm acidity in the mouth." - Winery; Sustainable Farming
