Morgante: Bianco d'Avola 2018

The first Nero d'Avola in white!

A white wine from the Morgante family. There’s no need to wonder which grape variety goes into the bottle here. The Morgante family dedicates all their experience and passion to the Sicilian Nero d’Avola grape, so it was clear that a white wine from Morgante could only be made from this grape.

On the nose, it starts with a flawless white wine bouquet: nectarine and green apple, a touch of chamomile flowers and almonds, and a hint of macchia.

On the palate, there are already subtle hints of red wine. A tannin thread, usually expected in red wines. Not intrusive but perfectly integrated into the aroma of this exceptional drop. Alongside this is a slightly salty, mineral vein that, combined with well-balanced freshness, gives the wine a lively, drinkable edge. The finish offers a lemony note with a touch of raspberry.

A perfect partner for saffron and seafood risotto, veal schnitzel in white wine sauce, or a plate of spaghetti with mussels. Great with paccheri and grilled prawns, as you can still admire here. Matures shockingly well for its price range.
