Adriatico Malvasia PDF TECH SHEET

Malvasia traces its roots back to Greece. It is an ancient grape variety which has found its greatest expression as a crisp, dry, white wine on the hills of the Istrian peninsula of Croatia. It is perfectly adapted to the warm, dry climate and matched to the bountiful seafood in the area.

TASTING NOTES
This Malvasia shows lovely aromas and flavors of whte flowers (jasmine and hawthorn), peaches, and tropical fruit. Although it is medium-bodied, the impact is rich, with a typical waxy texture backed by minerally structure and a long, dry finish.

GREAT WITH
Classically paired with the fish and seafood of the Adriatic, notably sea bass (branzino) and sea breem (orata). Also great with vegetable dishes, light, creamy pastas, lighter white meats, and soft cheeses.

“This dry Malvasia,
produced on the Istrian
peninsula in Croatia, has
the ability to be both
elegant and powerful.
Floral, mineral and a
hint of tropical fruit”
