Bisson Bianchetta Genovese, U Pastine Portofino
Vintage: | 2021 |
---|---|
Description: | A rare variety, usually included as part of a blend shines. Snappy and crisp with citrus overtones, this wine has taut acidity but retains a generous mouth feel. Notes of wet stone, ocean spray and clean salinity on the finish. The term U Pastine is from the local dialect indicating a very special product, appropriate for this rare white grape found only in Liguria. Lugano has saved several parcels from extinction and from which he creates a truly unique white wine that is delicate, lively and satisfying, filled with vibrant minerality; it is particularly delightful when married to the white-fleshed fish that frequent the shores of this part of Liguria ⌠the bianchetti, the nasello and tiny, exquisitely flavored langostino. |
