'Zibibbo Heritage Serragghia' Vino Bianco 2022
Gabrio e Giotto Bini
161 €
Gabrio and Giotto Bini's Zibibbo Heritage, is a macerated white wine made from zibibbo grapes from over 120-year-old vines on the island of Pantelleria. This Orange Wine has freshness, light tannin and a marked savouriness, reflecting the island's volcanic terroir. The Pantellerian winemaking tradition, begun by his father Gabrio in the 1990s, continues with Giotto, who continues the natural approach to production desired by his father from the beginning. In the vineyard, the use of sulphur and copper is avoided, and two horses are left free to move between the vines during the winter, playing the role of natural fertilisers and ‘pruners’. The grapes are carefully selected from centuries-old vines, grown on volcanic terraces. In the cellar, the must macerates with indigenous yeasts in terracotta amphorae immersed in tuff, followed by a long ageing in the same containers and then in the bottle. The Zibibbo Heritage wine is characterised by its golden yellow colour, aromas of white flowers, syrupy fruit and brackish notes. The sip offers an extraordinary marine note, depth and light tannin. To be enjoyed with fish dishes, risottos and white meat preparations.
Luminous golden yellow, slightly veiled. White flowers, almond, citrus and saline notes. Powerful, warm, fine tannins.
