Visionario
€13.90
Alessandro Gallici’s vision was to craft a fine Italian white like the pricy ones you find in top spot Friuli. His, however, would be a steal. Here’s his elegantly fresh masterpiece – “an aromatic mosaic” (Telegraph), all pretty peach and pear.
Wine type: White
Grape type: White Blend
Country of Origin: Italy
Year: 2021
Underscored by crisp, minerality; gentle pear, blossom and apricot
Delicate aromas of pear, apple and acacia
We’ve worked with Alessandro Gallici for over 20 years now – he’s the winemaker behind many of our most popular northern Italian wines and our best-selling Prosecco. For a long time he was head winemaker at a top cellar in Friuli. However his vision was to break away and make a Venezie ‘Super White’ as good as top names Felluga, Jermann and the like. His, however, would come at a down-to-earth price. He decided to set up on his own and we backed him all the way. His vision is a blend of the best grapes of the vintage, so the mix changes each year. Always aromatic, with pretty fruit, the 2021 comprises Friulano, Gewurztraminer, Sauvignon, Malvasia and Chardonnay. It’s the kind of wine you find in chic Italian restaurants. A great pick.
