Product Description

Tasting Notes:

Manzoni Bianco (a cross between Pinot Blanc and Riesling) produces this round and minerally wine with a delightful bouquet of ripe yellow pear and orchard blossom, complemented by notes of lemon pith and dried herbs. The palate reveals layers of caramel and sweet corn, balanced by medium-plus acidity that enhances its freshness. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with chicken and slightly spicy dishes, as well as a variety of vegetables and smoked fish. It also works well with pork, white fish, and creamy sauces, making it an excellent choice for diverse culinary experiences. For cheese pairings, mature and alpine cheeses enhance the wine's rich profile.
