2023 Terre Bianche Pigato

The Pigato from Terre Bianche represents one of the purest white wines of Liguria which comes from a family-owned winery located in Dolceacqua near the Mediterranean coast. The Pigato grape variety which originates from Vermentino grows best in the steep vineyards above the sea because maritime breezes and mineral-rich soils shape its distinctive character. The wine presents salty and floral characteristics with deep aromas that include yellow peach and citrus zest and Mediterranean herbs and crushed stone. The wine presents itself as vibrant and textured while maintaining coastal freshness and finishes with pleasant bitterness and almond notes that enhance its food pairing potential. The Pigato wine from Terre Bianche undergoes stainless steel fermentation and aging to preserve its pure and precise character. The wine pairs well with seafood crudo and grilled fish and pesto pasta and also suits a casual sunny afternoon. I truly love this wine
