Donna Lisa White
Malvasia White IGT Salento
Golden yellow wine, with a complex nose characterized by the fusion of aromatic hints of citrus fruits, pineapple, banana and vanilla. In the mouth the sweet notes of hazelnut butter show up together with a great freshness. Very good matched with fish soups, “risotto” and white meat. Serve at 10-12°C.
