▸ 90 Points – James Suckling (Nov 2024)
“A generous, fruit-driven and round petit manseng. The nose shows baked lemons, peaches and sweet spices. Medium-bodied with a dense core of fruit at the center and a creamy finish. Drink now.”–James Suckling (Nov 2024)

▸ Originally from France, the Petit Manseng grape was planted for the first time in Central Italy by Casale del Giglio in their vineyard. The result is this amazing white with a brilliant straw yellow colour and an inviting aroma. ▸ Fruity and spicy on the nose while fresh, crisp, and flinty on the palate, this wine is exquisitely structured with a seductive, fruit-filled finish. ▸ Spontaneous fermentation, no malolactic fermentation, aged several months on the lees before bottled in spring of the following year.
Food pairingsExcellent sipping wine on its own; versatile with food, especially fish dishes in savoury sauce.
