DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Poderi Gianni Gagliardo is a family winery in La Morra, in the Barolo zone of Piedmont. Fallegro is its white from Favorita, the old Piedmontese name for the Vermentino grape. The family first made it in 1974, and it is labeled Langhe DOC.
The wine is made in stainless steel and rests for a short time on its lees, with no oak. Reviewers describe crisp pear, a touch of lemon and white flowers with a saline, mineral edge. It is a bright, easygoing white from a producer better known for Barolo, and a nice change from Pinot Grigio.
Serve it chilled, around 45-50F, in a white wine glass. It is good with seafood pasta, grilled shrimp, vitello tonnato, a summer salad or simply as an aperitif.
Bottle size: 750ml
