Staff Pick Notes

This wine is made in memory of the Templar knights who lived at Montenidoli. A great blend made with mostly Vernaccia, plus Trebbiano, and Malvasia. This wine is made in the beautiful area of San Giminiano in Tuscany. Vine management is organic and farming is totally sustainable. Elisabetta and her husband bought this abandoned land in the 60s and worked hard to make it an amazing place to make wine...and you can enjoy the results: it's rich and spicy with orchard fruit, floral, honey notes, and a long finish. I would pair it with mushroom risotto.
