Casale del Giglio
Antium Bellone
Italy
Very fresh style. This poured a pale yellow. Nose offers lemon and zesty oil, some warm stones. Palate is balanced and fresh with more acid than I've tasted in a couple of Tuscan Vermentinos of late.

The label hit it right on the nose, sunshine, lemon, rich, deep flavors with a salty tang at the end. Excellent wine.

2019 vintage. Bellone is the grape from 60 year old ungrafted vines.
Asian pear, apricot skins, pepper and honey on the nose.
Rich mouthfeel with flavours of quince, grapefruit, roasted lemon and honey with a bitter citrus finish.
Pretty impressive for the price.
