San Lorenzo White
€13.00
From the union of the Inzolia, with its abundant, decidedly southern character, and the Incrocio Manzoni, fine, graceful, and undeniably Nordic, a surprising white wine is born, delicate yet strong, with a precise identity.
Bright, lime yellow in color. Its fruity aromas range from pear to lemon. Balance and elegance characterize the palate, its aromatic finesse makes it extremely pleasant, and its savory, mineral notes invite you to return to the glass.
Variety: Inzolia – Manzoni Cross
To pair with fish dishes, seafood, fresh cheeses, white meats.
