Pietra Calda 2004

Fiano grapes from Sorbo Serpico vines, it has a brilliant straw yellow color with a substantial texture in glass. On the nose, an array of floral and fruity sensations followed by a distinct note of white pepper and hints of fresh sage.
A delicate geranium nuance compliments the apricot, ripe peach and tropical fruit character. On the palate the structure is balanced by a fresh, mineral presence that confers the wine notable elegance. The harmonious finish offers overtones of walnuts, yellow-fleshed fruit and lemon peel.
