Umbria Bianco IGT - Trebbiano Malvasia - Georgie

Selected by Hammm for its authentic, rural soul, winemakers revitalizing forgotten vineyards in the Umbrian hills. Each wine is born from respect for the land and a desire to express it honestly.

The wine

"Giorgie" is grown near the winery, on clay and limestone soils that provide strength, aromatic clarity, and a satisfying drink.

Characteristics

Harvested by hand, the Trebbiano is destemmed and crushed, and macerated on the skins for 10 days. Once spontaneous fermentation begins, the Malvasia must is added. The wine then ages on the lees for 7 months.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it's a fragrant and smooth white: it takes its acidity and structure from the Trebbiano, and its aromatics and roundness from the Malvasia. It has aromas of white flowers and citrus, and closes with an inviting finish.

Recommended pairings

Perfect with delicate cured meats , truffle and aged cheeses , grilled vegetables, baked fish, sushi and herb-based first courses.
