Civello is unique in the wine world - a new white wine based on a mix of Pinot Gris with Verdelho. We began with a traditional Alsatian mix of Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer. The two grapes together become a mysterious mix of taste and aromas best described as baked nuts and spice. Feeling the blend was too traditional, Winemaker Ricardo d. wanted to enrich the Pinot Gris with tropical notes and flavors. Chosen were the white peach and tropical flavors found in the Verdelho grape when grown in California.
Tasting notes: The taste is crisp, but full. The wine is dry.
