Castello di Torre in Pietra, Lazio Bianco "Elephas", Lazio, Italy 2023 {organic} Trebbiano, Vermetino, Fiano STONE FRUIT & LEMON, FRESH, SAVORY SALINE SUGGESTION This blend of Central Italian mainstays of Trebbiano and Vermentino, along with the more typically southern Fiano, is begging for the beach. This estate can boast decades of forward-thinking, organic production of grapes, grains, and olives, all situated on a coast largely unchanged for the past six centuries. Labor-intensive methods with the vines and minimal intervention in the cellar result in wines that are inspiringly sincere yet, thankfully, affordable. Serving Suggestion: Spaghetti w/ clams & fish roe. Braised garlic & parsley-stuffed artichokes w/ white wine & lemon juice, finished w/ peas. White sauce pizza w/ ham & broccoli.
