This white is a beautiful blend of three different grapes (Garganea, Chardonnay, Trebbiano), and that gives it a refreshingly fruity character. You'll notice white apricot and peach, with an almondy finish, in its aroma. It goes great with salads and pasta, and it should be drunk young to really appreciate all of this wine's fruitiness.
Grape: Garganea, Chardonnay and Trebbiano Region: Veneto, Italy Vineyard: Fasoli Gino Vintage: 2016 Type: Dry fruity white ABV: 12.5%

Producer
Fasoli Gino turned to organic viticulture back in 1980 and since 1984 all of their land has been farmed organically. There are various soils, and this is what determines the grape variety grown there. In the clay soil there are 30–40 year old Garganega vines, traditionally used for Soave. Where the soil is stony and sandy, some clones of chardonnay, merlot and pinot noir have been planted. The meticulous viticultural practices include: grass grown under the vines; manuring with bovine dung; balanced pruning to guarantee a low yield; parasite control using natural products and predators, and hand picking done at different times to select grapes at their optimum ripening point. The vinification is carried out with the use of modern technology whilst respecting the criteria of organic production.
