Bastianich Vespa Bianco 2016

The flagship of the Bastianich estate was born with the winery in 1998 as standard-bearer and clear enological message: Friulian wine, in its greatest expression, has nothing to envy both in terms of quality or longevity compared to the other world-famous whites of the world. It is through this longevity that Vespa Bianco has built its reputation and its fame. Bastianich Vespa Bianco 2016 vintage has a tightly-wound balance of citrus and minerality, evolving over time to a dense expression of honey, ripe pear, and wildflowers. The tannic structure and acidic backbone lend to the immediate impact but a long life with proper cellaring.
