🌟 An elegant and aromatic Italian Riesling—zesty, floral, and mineral-driven, bringing Alpine freshness to the rolling hills of Piemonte.
👁 In the Glass:
Pale straw yellow with green highlights—crisp, clean, and radiant.
👃 On the Nose:
Bright and expressive with notes of lime, white peach, and green apple. Hints of jasmine, flint, and a subtle honeyed touch add both freshness and complexity.
👅 On the Palate:
Lively and refreshing, with vibrant citrus and orchard fruit flavours balanced by piercing acidity. The palate is dry and precise, with a mineral backbone and a gently textured finish that lingers with elegance.
🍽 Food Pairing:
Ideal with sushi, grilled trout, Thai salads, or creamy cheeses. Its acidity and aromatic lift make it a great match for both delicate and spice-kissed dishes.
⏳ Ageing Potential:
Enjoy now for its vibrant charm, or cellar for 4–6 years to reveal more honeyed, petrol-kissed depth.
✨ Why You’ll Love It:
‘Fontanino’ is not your typical Italian white—it’s a beautifully crafted Riesling that brings the cool precision of northern Europe to Piemonte’s sun-drenched slopes. Crisp, floral, and quietly complex, it’s a wine for thinkers, sippers, and Riesling lovers alike.
