Biancolella
Ischia Biancolella Doc
100% Biancolella, it has elegant and intense bouquet, floral and fruity, fragrant, classy and persistent. It develops on notes of yellow peach, banana and ginestra flowers. Full and intense on the palate, with an appealing body reflecting the varietal characteristics. Dry and savory, thanks to the type of vinification, it is pleasantly crisp. The long finish is characterized by the traditional and distinctive hint of bitter almond which enhances the uniqueness of the variety.
It can be paired with cold appetizers served with sweet and sour sauces, vegetables, delicate fishes, fried seafood, vegetable creams and white meat. Excellent with Coniglio alla Cacciatora, a typical recipe from Ischia.
