Wonderful small producer find here. Lumassina is an extremely uncommon varietal with only three producers growing it, all within Colline Savonesi. High terraced vineyards produce pale straw yellow colors with a slight fizzante present brimming around the top. Has a vinegar-like smell that blows off revealing some nice citrus notes. Flavors are hard to pin down… maybe some tangerine and peach? Quite subtle. Lots of mineral feels and good structure.
