Quater Bianco Igt 2008 Firriato
A rich and composite universe, incomparable in a beauty and scent. Where the wine has always grown, where every bunch is golden: this in the land of Sicily. This wine manages to capture and exalt these wonderful features through four native vines skilfully gathered “in one”. The surprise comes with its bright, deep yellow colour which precedes delicious, fresh citrus and peach notes. Elegance and complexity define the taste of this singular union, revealing its original, innovative texture. |
