Foradori Fontanasanta – Nosiola Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT 2014 New year, a new grape (Nosiola)! Nosiola is an ancient varietal only found in these parts of Trentino. This wine is made from a tiny 2 hectares planted in calcareous clay and farmed biodynamically. Fermentation and aging take place on the skins in clay amphora for a total time of 8 months. The color is an elegant straw gold color with a green tint. The nose and palate show floral, chiseled rock minerality and the fruit runs in the fresh but subtle spectrum of pear, citrus and kiwi. A gorgeous purity and elegance flows over the palate. There are zero traces upon appearance, aroma or taste that hint to typical amphora (orange) wines. #Foradori #ElisabettaForadori #ForadoriWine

A beautiful wine. We had with oysters and popcorn shrimp. Deep golden in colour. Reminds me of Huet chenin. Rich ripe red apples. Mineral saline finish.
