Sordo Giovanni Langhe Bianco 2018
The Viognier is a white grape variety which originally was grown only in the northern part of the Rodano Valley. Long forgotten, it became one of most popular vine varieties in the world after the last quarter of the XX century. A fascinating wine that is extraordinarily ageable.

Colour

Very bright straw-yellow.

Bouquet

The nose is a jubilation of flowers with lily of the valley, lemon blossom, narcissus, acacia flowers and lavender, joined by classical notes of peach, citrus peel, and in closing, Chinese magnolia, sage and cardamom. The overtones that allow you to recognise Viognier are a typical aroma, one and triune, inextricable, gooseberry, acacia and apricot.

Flavour

On the palate it is warm, corpulent, with a medium freshness, moderate tanginess and lingering finish that ends with hints of apricot.

Pairing

From fish appetizers to first courses, and second courses with fish or white meat.
