Da-Di

Toscana I.G.T. Bianco 2021


Born from Virginie’s intuition to rediscover the vocation of the Cortona area for the production of great white wines from indigenous grapes, Dadi bianco condenses all of Avignonesi’s desire to experiment.

A harmonious wine with a distinct and fresh personality. In the glass it opens intensely with floral notes of wisteria and lime, white peach and gooseberry. On the palate, the entry is precise and straight. Lemon peel, mint and the complexity of wildflower honey emerge. The marked acidity makes it long and elegant. In the aftertaste hints of flint stone bring back mineral notes.
