Vermentino based blend from the terraces of Cinque Terre, refreshing and actually salty and sweet with right amount of acidity. Perfect for Ligurian seafood. #qpritalianriveria — 9 years ago

Complex expression of a Cinque Terre white. Medium gold in color with tons of white peach, orange and lemon rind, a salty tang not unlike a manzanilla sherry, orange marmalade, apricot, and a tarragon finish with marcona almond notes. Superb with food and nice if tending savory to sip on — 7 years ago
