Price: $36.99
In Mixed Case: $33.29
Elisabetta Fagiuolia is the inimitable force behind the Montenidoli property in San Gimignano, a picturesque medieval town about an hour outside Florence. Elisabetta is one of the great producers of Vernaccia di San Gimignano, one of Italy’s best whites, and her Fiore bottling is a perennial favorite here at MWC. Fiore is 100% Vernaccia that is made only from free run juice that ages on the lees in steel for around 12 months. Mid-weight with crackling acidity, Fiore boasts rich orchard fruit and bright citrus, cut by salty minerality and whispers of fresh green herbs. Fiore always shows best with a little bit of air and ages comfortably for up to a decade. If possible, decant your wine or open it an hour before you intend to drink it. If you only turn to Tuscany for red wines, you should see what you’ve been missing.
