Kalimera Ischia Biancolella
20-30 year old vines planted to a rural, ancient vineyard. Original winery may date back almost 3,000 years. Intense orchard fruits interlaced with plump acids.

Jun 27th, 2019Very intense white, with concentrated flavors and acidity. Mediterranean salt, minerals, citrus peel. From a tiny island off the coast of Napoli. Great stuff, but definitely a food wine (13% abv). With tonight’s dinner of Italian eggplant shakshouka and sweet potatoes in sesame tahini butter. Blue Raspberry Sour Patch Kids for dessert.
Update: had my last bottle with roasted butternut squash in couscous salad, and it was a little too harsh, even with food. Bumping my rating down a bit.
