Winemaker Notes: An ancient sardinian varietal, torbato is said to have reached the shores of the iberian peninsula thanks to the Phoenicians, and later brought to the island by the Catalans when they governed it.
It is an especially fascinating varietal, which was studied for many years by Sella & Mosca, the first winery to produce it unblended. Terre Bianche takes its name from the calcareous soil, and the wine stands out for its bouquet and harmony.
In terms of color, delicate straw gold with golden tones. Notably fragrant on the nose with primary fruit aromas. Complex and persistent, and very elegant. Fresh, crisp and flavorful, with a naturally assertive and pleasing acidity. Sensational with shellfish and seafood dishes.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
James Suckling - "...Give this time to open up. When it does, it reveals dried citrus, daffodils and apricots. Sleek and linear on the palate, where the acidity cuts through fleshy
stone fruit and drives this quite long. Drink now"
