Vino Lauria Radice 2020
Sicily, ItalyThis orange catarratto came from a 30-year-old organically farmed vineyard at 600m on the northern face of Monte Bonifato. It spends 15 days on skins before 6 months’ rest in stainless. Pouring a hazy orange hue, this textural white streams apricot fuzz, peach pit, acacia blossoms along a grippy, tight palate, with ample saline energy from the site. Detailed and interesting and drinking beautifully now.Tasted: 20 July 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $26.95 | 750ml | consignment |
