Rivera Marese Bombino Bianco 2015

Puglia, ItalyRivera is one of the leading producers of Puglia, and this fragrant and delicate bombino bianco is from the Castel del Monte region, named for the dominating 13th century hill top castle. Perfumed and tight white flowers, white grapefruit and unripe pear and melon rule this light, dry white, streaked with bitter pithyness and marcona almonds and thinly lined with lees. This was aged on the lees for two-three months in glass-lined cement vats. Clean, light and lean, chill and enjoy as an aperitif.Tasted: 05 April 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
