DESCRIPTION

The wine is bursting with aromas of fresh fruit – apricot, peach, crisp golden apple – as well as dried camomile and white flowers.
The mineral notes give the wine elegance and finesse. On the palate the wine is smooth and round making it easy drinking and persistent. This wine pairs excellently with raw fish dishes, oysters and lobster. Pasta al pesto genovese or white meat dishes pairs as well. It pairs well with cheeses with delicate and sweet finish.

STAFORTE ACCORDING TO GRAZIANO

“This wine came about as the result of a challenge. In 2004, when we started making it, ageing in steel was against the flow, unlike barrique ageing. Today we are pleased to have taken the risk.”

“...the production of food is a gastronomic act. To be a-source of food pleasure, the food must be good, but also pure and correct: it must be the result of sustainable agriculture that respects the environment and the dignity of the workers. When we buy food, we choose also an agricultural model.
This is a fundamental issue that determines the future of the planet: its survival or its destruction.”
