Wine Review: This lively, fresh white blend (Grechetto di Todi and Viognier) from the Umbria region of Italy is a medium gold color which opens with aromas of buttery baked apple, light citrus, beeswax, lily of the valley, and toasted almond. In the mouth it is lightly creamy, very smooth, and medium bodied with integrated plus acidity. I found it to be crisp, balanced, layered, and lightly textured. There are flavors of crisp apple, almond, gentle oak, chamomile tea, and lime along with hints of saline, beeswax, and spice. Some light tannins in the dry, mouthwatering, and persistent finish. Savor this interesting white as an aperitif or serve lightly chilled with steamed garlic mussels and crusty rustic bread. - Mark
Winemaker Notes: Creamy and refreshing, Rigogoli bursts with flavors of peach, almond, sweet spice and finishes with a clean, sea-swept minerality. The native Grechetto di Todi pairs well with Viognier which rounds out Grechetto's acidity but also serves to add more complex aromas to this wine. Rigogoli is perfect for pasta courses with shellfish and medium aged cheeses.
