An unusual white wine made from the red Sangiovese grape, vinified in the white-wine method (gentle pressing with minimal skin contact). Part of La Selva's 'Espressioni' line, it shows a pale straw color with powdery pink nuances, fruity aromas of small red berries with a touch of spice, and a fresh, smooth, well-balanced palate.
A clever party trick with real substance — Sangiovese vinified white shows a surprisingly elegant, spicy side of the grape.
