Gismondi 'Cerreto' Skin Contact Malvasia di Candia 2019

The Gismondi family has been farming grapes, veggies, and olives north of Naples for generations, but the tiny quantity of wine they made was kept for in-house consumption. Finally in 2019, they began releasing wines to the public, including a small amount of this natural, skin-contact or orange Malvasia. It has floral and citrus flavors that jump out of the glass, as well as saltiness that’ll remind you it’s made a short trip from the coast. Tastes like: Apricot, chamomile, pineapple, and salt. How to drink: Chilled with sushi or grilled fish, or alongside tricky-to-pair veggies like broccoli rabe.
