About the Wine

The wine is named "Lamelle" after the Italian word / description for the grooves (precisely "lamelle") of a shell which is beautifully depicted on the label. The shell was used because the area where the grapes are grown is rich in sea fossils which are very similar to these shells. These fossils go back to the end of the Pliocene period where there was a deep lake that existed about 3 million years ago.

It is straw-yellow colored and its bouquet discloses the typical aromas of the grape variety. On the nose, it is fresh with hints of yellow pulp fruits and floral scents. The taste is pleasantly fresh and fruity with a marked mineral note deriving from a well-balanced acidity and a good sapidity.

It is ideal with fish dishes, light first course dishes, or fresh soft cheese. Also to be served as an aperitif.
