"Ammano Zibibbo #10" Vino Bianco - 2022
Ammàno is a captivating wine crafted by the sea. Its archaic, essential winemaking process imbues the wine with the characteristic saline freshness and rich aromatic profile of grapes harvested on Mediterranean islands.
Ammàno is not rushed. Allow the golden liquid to flow gently into your glass and breathe for as long as needed. The wine has been patiently aged in the bottle for weeks or even years, developing a harmonious relationship with the nurturing sediment that has created a naturally reductive environment, protecting it from oxidation.
Ammàno's aroma is a captivating blend of orange blossoms, yellow broom, apricot, and the savory Mediterranean herbs - thyme, marjoram, oregano - with a trace of incense that intensifies as the wine warms. On the palate, it is rich, robust, and finishes with a lively, pronounced saltiness.
Ammàno is a wine that pairs effortlessly with a wide range of cuisine, from tuna and bottarga to creamy cheeses and sushi. It is also a wine to be enjoyed simply for the pleasure of wine, inviting you to experiment with unexpected flavor combinations.
To best appreciate Ammàno, serve it at room temperature in wide Chardonnay glasses. Avoid prolonged refrigeration, as the wine's unfiltered and unfined nature means temperatures below 40°F can diminish its rich aromas and induce tartaric precipitation. For a more interesting tasting experience, keep the bottle upright during slow refrigeration to allow the sediments to settle.
