Grapes were selectively hand-picked, carefully selected, pneumatically pressed, fermented under controlled temperature and matured on fine lees in stainless-steel tanks. The finished-wine analytical panel also reports acidity of 5.7‰; the reference-acid basis is not stated, so this has not been converted into total_acidity_gl.
Tasting Notes Chinese pear, white pepper, dried herbs and tropical fruit; medium-bodied, mouth-watering acidity, with a juicy yet spicy finish.
Food Pairing Roasted kidneys, roasted chicken, spaghetti alle vongole, branzino baked in a salt crust, and Vietnamese Ca Kho To (braised and caramelized fish).
