Summary: Mandoleto is a collection of modern wines matched to the ideal Italian region, identified over thousands of years of trial and error. Mandoleto is named in honour of the Mandorlo (Almond) tree that grow alongside the vines on the steep hillsides. Each spring the Mandorlo flower, bringing a touch of beauty to the harsh landscape.
Winemaking: Sourced from higher altitude vineyards north east of Verona. The fruit is later ripening and picked early in the morning to preserve natural acidity and freshness. The vinification is quick and precise with fermentation in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks before maturation on lees for three months to build depth of flavour.
2020 Vintage: A vintage that brought a more even ripening season to Italy bringing yields closer to previous averages. The berries ripened, developing fine natural acidities whilst arriving at excellent flavour and phenolic ripeness. The wines will show bright fruit flavours with lifted aromatics. This is a fine vintage for white and red wines.
Tasting Note: Pale and delicate in colour with subtle floral notes, lemon, white peach and green pear. The palate is elegant and delightfully fresh with soft fruit flavours matched by soft mineral acidity before a very long and satisfying, fine dry finish. A varietal and fresh Pinot Grigio that is perfect with light seafood dishes or just chilled on its own.
