This wine shows depth of flavor while retaining a very moderate weight and a lithe finish. The Flora & Fauna White is a balance of florals (orange blossoms), minerals (wet stones), citrus (lemon peel), and orchard fruit (pear). Just when the wine starts to feel intense in its phenolics and aromatics, the palate turns to this near rain water like lightness with a crisp and clean finish.
It is the collection of grape varieties from the cellar that make up the blend for the year. In 2022, this white is mostly Arneis, with a beautiful blend of other Piemontese white varieties including Muscat Canelli, Cortese, Favorita and Erbaluce.
Staff Review:
“Wildflowers on the nose, minerals & citrus on the palate. Light, clean finish with a fizzy acidity! I enjoy this wine with a spicy dish! Cheers!“
