At first smell, this Verdeca transports you immediately to Southern Italy with its intoxicating aroma of gentle lemon blossoms, dried wild herbs, and the Adriatic breeze. Riper orchard and stone fruits—pear, white peach, honeydew—meet a kiss of salty sea spray that brings the wine to a refreshing finish.
