About this wine
A skin-contact Malvasia Bianca from Natalino Del Prete in the Salento, made with 5 days of maceration on the skins and fermented in cement without temperature control, producing a wine of floral freshness, honeyed depth, and a saline mineral finish.
How it tastes
Open 15 minutes before serving and watch it evolve.
Tasting notes
Pale amber-gold. The nose is floral and fragrant with acacia honey, apricot, dried citrus peel, and a fresh herbal note. On the palate it is dry despite the honeyed aromatics, with a textural grip from skin contact, good natural acidity, and a long, mineral, slightly salty finish. A genuinely beautiful orange wine from one of Puglia's finest small producers.
Goes with
Grilled fish, seafood, burrata, aged Caciocavallo, and vegetable-forward Puglian dishes.
