PRAISE
Bone-dry Italian white with zippy citrus notes and peachy freshness.
- Description
- Grapes, Region, etc.
One of the oldest native Umbrian grape varieties, Grechetto has beautiful structure and aromatic intensity. This particular Grechetto is made with grapes grown in volcanic soils, and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve its freshness. Bone-dry, light and refreshing, with notes of peach, grapefruit and garden herbs.
La Carraia is located in the rolling hills of Umbria; centred upon the lush Apennine Range in the centre of the Italian peninsula. With five estates across the heart of the Orvieto region, La Carraia’s goal is to create modern wines that maintain the terroir of the Umbrian hills they grow on. The winery was founded in 1988 by Odoardo Gialetti and world-renowned enologist Riccardo Cotarella. Today, you can still find Cotarella in the cellar, and Gialetti in the vineyards.
