"Intense perfumes of exotic fruit and yellow peach, floral notes of freesia and hawthorn, pleasing chalkiness on the finish. Full, fresh taste with a long persistence." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Apple-blossom, pear, pomelo, fennel-seed and wild-herb aromas. It’s medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Earthy and minerally undertones. Drink now." —James Suckling "With fruit from loamy calcareous soils, the Arnaldo Caprai 2021 Colli Martani Grechetto Grecante is always a pleasure to drink. It makes me long for hot summer afternoons. Made in stainless steel only, there is a lot of tangy freshness here backed by white peach, passion fruit and crushed stone. This is a well-priced production of 140,000 bottles." —Wine Advocate "A lively, light- to medium-bodied white, offering generous tangerine and ruby red grapefruit fruit flavors that show accents of fresh herbs, spices and smoke, all backed by tangy acidity. Lightly chalky on the mouthwatering finish. Drink now. 7,500 cases made, 1,000 cases imported." —Wine Spectator |
