The grapes come from Sardinia’s Gallura area. Alcohol is thirteen and a half percent.

Panevino Alvas Bianco
Italian White
$105.99
Stone fruit and citrus open a broad, golden-hued white, with floral, herbal and gently spiced notes adding complexity. The palate is textured rather than crisp and simple, shaped by extended skin contact and a quiet mineral edge. Acacia ageing brings subtle breadth while fresh acidity keeps the fruit from feeling heavy. A light, savoury grip carries the finish. Serve cool with grilled vegetables, firm fish, roast poultry or washed-rind cheese.
