Description
 
The 2016 Cantina De Sanctis 496 Frascati DOC is a blend of 80% Malvasia Puntinata and 20% Bombino from 35 to 50 year old vines organically grown on rich volcanic and mineral soils of the De Sanctis family vineyards located in the gentle sloping green hills of the Frascati DOC just 15 miles from Rome in Central Italy. The grapes are hand harvested and transported to the nearby winery where they are soft pressed in airtight temperature controlled stainless steel tanks, naturally fermented with native yeasts and no sulfites for a period of 15-20 days, the wine is aged on the lees for about 5-6 months and finally bottle fined for about a month.In the glass the wine is a golden straw yellow.
The nose is rich with floral notes, hints of ripe peaches and herbs.
The palate lush with flavors of ripe pears, almonds and hints of thyme balanced by great acidity and volcanic minerality.
This wine will pair well with White Fish, Margherita Pizza, Seafood, Lighter Pasta Dishes and Fresh Cheeses.

5 of 5 Fabulous white Italian wines April 19, 2018
Reviewer: July Lam from Daily city  
One of the best white Italian wines I have ever had, loved its fruity aromas and its minerality. I had it with a vegetarian dinner and it was fantastic!
