2015 | La Monacesca | Mirum Verdicchio di Matelica Riserva

Delicious and loaded with personality, this structured, medium-bodied white opens with bread crust, yellow stone fruit, citrus zest, honey and toasted almond aromas that follow through to the juicy, elegant palate. Fresh acidity brightens the rich flavors.

Reviews:

• Wine Spectator: This has an array of fresh pears and lime with melon and citrus notes, which are starting to fade.
