Cristiano Guttarolo
Vino Bianco
From a Tutto spec sheet: A blend of roughly equal parts of Verdeca from Cristiano’s vineyards, along with a little Fiano and Malvasia from an old organic vineyard in Gioia. The grapes are macerated as whole bunches for a week before being pressed off for a short élevage in porcelain amphorae. A beautiful shade of peach in the glass, this is wonderfully floral and impresses with plush stone fruits, a hint of tannin and a clean, mineral finish.
Stable, clean, textured, very elegant and balanced. — 3 years ago

I am preparing for a trip Portugal in a week so I am drinking Portuguese wines this week. This was a surprise find for me. It is the best red from Douro region that I have had. It was a 2016 closeout for $5.99. I am going to get more tomorrow. — 3 months ago
