White
Mappale 99
By Cantina Riboli, Asti, Piemonte, Italy
A 100% Sauvignon from the Santo Stefano Belbo vineyard, made in steel to show the variety cleanly. The producer credits the limestone for its salty, mineral feel.
Tasting notes
Fresh, fruity, saline, precise and very drinkable. A balance of fruit, freshness and a saline close, without exaggerated aromatic notes.
