Elisabetta Fagiuolia is the inimitable force behind the Montenidoli property in San Gimignano, a picturesque medieval town about an hour outside Florence. Her wines are reference points in the beauty and diversity of all that Tuscany can offer. Fiore is her lip-smacking, salty, herbaceous Vernaccia that has become an obsession at the shop. Fiore is made from only free run juice that then ages on its lees in stainless steel for 12 months. It’s truly a world-class wine that would hold it’s own against far more expensive white wines from say Burgundy or the Loire valley in France. Summer is heating up - this is a perfect wine to reach for with seafood, grilled chicken, or pork, and is also quite lovely on its own. For those with patience, it cellars extremely well for 5 – 10 years, blossoming into a much more unctuous wine. It’s a joy for us to offer such an expressive wine at this price. If you only turn to Tuscany for red wines, you should see what you’ve been missing!
