Don Guerino Sinais Itálico Riesling 2022

£14.99

From the outstanding Don Guerino winery comes this gorgeous zingy dry white, which shows restrained melon, peach and citrus flavours, and is very different from its German namesake (and no ‘petrol’ aromas!).

Makes for lovely chilled aperitif drinking but can be paired with chicken, turkey, smoked salmon, salads, risottos, canapés – or oriental dishes.

Vegan & vegetarian friendly.

 

Description

ABV: 13%

APPEARANCE: Very pale yellow with green reflexes

AROMAS: A blend of floral notes and more tropical aromas of pineapple, mango and melon

TASTE: Soft pineapple and peach flavours predominate; wine is crisp, dry and light bodied with just a hint of spritz on palate (nb. it doesn’t have either the searing acidity or ‘minerality’ of a German Rhine Riesling!)

FOOD PAIRING: Try with salads, hors d’oeuvres, cold meat plates or mildly spiced dishes

OVERALL: A dry, tropically flavoured white wine, ideal as an aperitif and for informal drinking

If you like this, try Sauvignon Blanc or Moscato Giallo – two tangy, tropically influenced dry whites also from the Sinais range
