White Wine2021 Zibibbo ‘Vitese’, Colomba Bianca
£1295Add to BasketThis crisp, fruity Zibibbo shows lifted notes of succulent white peach combined with soft floral aromatics of orange blossom and jasmine. Elegant and perfumed with a long, zesty citrus finish.
Zibibbo, as it is known locally in Sicily, is the synonym for Muscat of Alexandria. It produces highly aromatic wines and is the local’s pride and joy. Here in these sundrenched vineyards, the highest standards are attained through the use of innovative technology and the careful process of mapping the terroir according to the weather patterns, harvesting time, soils and vine age. The grapes undergo a sensory analysis and are hand-harvested at the optimum maturity levels, according to the terroir and microclimate of the vineyard. They are then harvested into 20-kilogram containers, to prevent the grapes from being prematurely crushed. The vineyards are made up of distinct soil and climate conditions and range from sea-level up to 700 metres above sea level, imparting subtle complexity into the wine.

2022 Pinot Grigio Vigna Castel Ringberg, Elena Walch
£3100Add to BasketElena Walch is a leading Alto Adige wine estate and this stunning Pinot Grigio is from a Cru vineyard in the hills overlooking Lake Caldaro, in the “Castel Ringberg” estate. The moderating influence of the lake and the strong afternoon drying southerly wind known as “Ora” contribute to the balanced, elegant character of the wine.
In the glass a clear straw yellow colour characterises the Pinot Grigio Vigna “Castel Ringberg”. A complex variety of fruits, especially ripe pears and lime blossom, as well as spicy sage notes inform the bouquet. Structure and elegance, power and harmony dominate the palate, combined with creamy fullness and density. A single vineyard Pinot Grigio with a lot of character!
This versatile wine goes with many dishes based on vegetables and fish. The lively and well balanced acidity of the wine and the rich aromatic range also make it ideal as an aperitif.
