6 Verdicchio Zaccanini, Italy 2007
This has to be one of the nicest new Italian wines I have tried – the style is very similar to a very good Pinot Grigio, with a soft elegant fruit nose but on the palate it has an incredible concentration of detailed fruit with an underlying richness and a hint of minerality
|
£17.50 |
|

A full bodied wine with a lightly floral bouquet. Lime and herb notes underlay the melon and pineapple fruit, and the mouth feel is supple, almost rich. Balanced acidity on the palate leading to a concentrated finish.

Jean-marc owns 9 hectares of vines in St Aubin, Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet. He leaves the whites in barrel for up to 24 months but the wines don’t show any excessive oak. In fact they always have beautifully elegant fruit and very fine acid balance.
