The northern reaches of Italy's famed Piedmont produces some of the finest wines in the world. Most notably Barolo, and when we think of whites, it's generally Gavi or Arneis, so it's shocking that the top rated white from Vite Colte is a Sauvignon Blanc! Virtually unheard of with the exception of two vineyards in Monferrato, the "Tra Donne Sole" is one of the finest Sauvignon Blanc's of Italy. Sourced from French clones, the Tra Donne Sole is characterized by gorgeous exotic fruit with abundant minerality. Vite Colte use extended hang-time to give the Sauvignon Blanc a richness that you seldom see outside of California, yet retains the acidity and zippiness the wine is known for. Due Bicchieri from Gambero Rosso, with 90+ ratings from Decanter and Kerin O'Keefe, don't miss this beautiful expression of Sauvignon Blanc!
"Bright straw yellow. The dominant notes are white flowers and hints of nice minerality. Intense aromatic nose with notes of gooseberry and elderflower. In the mouth it is fresh, pleasantly acidic and richly fruity." Luca Maroni, 97 Points
