Massican Proprietary White "GEMINA" Napa Valley 750mL
Vintage: | 2022 |
---|---|
Description: | A blend of 62% Grecoand 38% Falanghina, Gemina is the name of an ancient Roman grape planted in the region around the Massican hills of southern Italy. This grape variety originates from Greece, dating back to the first century when it was first called Aminea Gemina. Gemina is a unique, white wine blend combining grapes originally from the south of Italy and now planted here in California. This blend balances the winery's familial history in the south of Italy with their passion for the fresh white wines of the Mediterranean. Jeb Dunnuck 93 Points - "The 2022 Gemina has outstanding energy. A blend of 62% Grecco and the rest Falanghina, this more Southern-Italian-inspired wine is a rich straw color and is expressive on opening, with notes of melon honeydew, tangerine peel, fresh herbs, and citrus blossoms. Savory and snappy, it comes to life on the palate with a crystalline texture, a bright lift of fresh citrus-toned acidity, and a salty finish. I love where this wine is going, and it will be fun to see how it ages. Drink 2024-2034." |
