Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Enticing bouquet of lemon blossoms and wild yellow broom, complete with ripe apricots and the taste is rich and mouth-filling. Good structure and a long aromatic finish. Deep expression of Falanghina with a golden color and aromas of peach, pear and banana. The wine offers creamy richness and plenty of fruit-driven flavors to keep it interesting, glass after glass.

Professional Ratings

  • 91
    A tense, golden wine, this buzzes with honeysuckle and mint scents over succulent, peach-rich fruit. The underside of acidity keeps it tight and focused on food, particularly fresh summer salads like crab with mango and cilantro.

Carlo De Lucia, Italy
Winemaker Carlo De Lucia has taken on the area's agricultural traditions of using modern systems to produce wines of a superior quality, obtained from the selection of the best grapes, rich in flavors and tastes of this ancient land. In the early 90's, he built a new cellar and began planting new vineyards in Guyot – this meant a lower grape production, but higher quality wines.

Italian White Wine

The rolling hills and endless coastlines of Italy deliver a unique diversity of soils and climate to foster a number of regional specialties. With a multitude of indigenous varieties that thrive exclusively here, the selection of white wines offers a range of styles and flavors.

The most well-known white variety in Italy is of course Pinot Grigio. Typically found in the northern Italian regions, the light, fresh and easy-drinking options can be found in the Veneto region, while the richer, more complex styles come from Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trentino-Alto Adige. These two northeast regions are also crafting delicions Pinot Bianco and a regional specialty, Friulano.

In Piedmont, two white regions shine. The crisp and zippy Gavi, made with a Cortese grape, and Arneis, a variety that produces a subtle by dry wine. In the Veneto, the Garganegna grape creates the wine of Soave, a zesty but medium-bodied wine full of rich stone fruit and floral notes.

Further south, you'll find the pretty and floral Falenghina, rich and tropical Grillo and zesty Greco. Head to Sicily to discover the delicious and complex Etna Biancos, made with the Carricante grape in the island's volcanic soils.

If you enjoy a tangy but textured white wine with seafood, head to Sardinia and try out the Vermentino there. The grape is also found in other Italian provinces and is always a delight.
