Tasting Notes
Appearance
Bright yellow straw in colour.
Aroma
The bouquet is of ripe stone fruits, elderflower florals and scents of the Mediterranean.
Palate
The palate continues in the same vein, with crisp acid freshness, elegance and an enticingly silky sapidity.
Food matching
Serve at 12 degrees C as an aperitif or with Giuseppe Pagano’s preferred accompaniments: Spaghetti alle Vongole (spaghetti with clams) or raw fish and shellfish.
Cellaring potential
Drink now or over the coming 3 years.
Vinification
Sourced from a vineyard in the shadow of the Ancient Greek temples of Paestum and in the heart of the National Park of Cilento, Valley of Diano and Alburni, at Capaccio-Paestum in the locality of Cannito. The vines were planted at 150-210 metres with south-south-west exposure, on alluvial clay soils. The vines (average age 20 years) are trained guyot, and a green harvest is usually carried out. The hand-harvested grapes undergo a gentle crush and are fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks, and bottled in the spring.
