Trebbiano, Pecorino & Passerina, Tuscany, Italy
Bellissimo! This bone-dry, textured Italian white blend from a family-owned winery delivery on the escapism factor big time. We have the sound of cicadas ringing in our ears just drinking this, texturally plump and slightly green like a fresh olive off the tree. Fermented in tank with wild yeasts and left to settle for four months, this is an effortless, work-free afternoon in the hot Italian sun with the promise of a languid, four-hour feast in the evening. An aromatic, honeysuckle-tinted nose with flavours of peach pit, fruit salad, frangipane, lychee and a whiff of white pepper. Worth buying a new swimsuit for, don’t forget your passport!
