Pasqua, Passimento Bianco, Veneto, Italy, 2015

91
Tasted by: Christelle Guibert
Grown in the Valpolicella zone, Garganega grapes are partly dried, losing 20% to 30% of their weight before fermentation. The result is very unique, full of dried apricot and honey. This unusual process for dry whites adds a creamy, rich mouthfeel balanced by the bright acidity. This is crying out for food.
