Anselmi Capitel Foscarino 2021

Share

Hails from the Veneto with the region’s favourite white grape, Garganega, showing its class, bringing both concentrated fruit flavour and soft texture to the glass. Varietally powerful in aromas of stewed apple, Nashi pear, lemon sorbet and lime with a touch of preserved lemon savouriness. On aromas alone, it is easy to get to know. Comes across a little more developed to taste than the aromas might suggest and brimming with texture. Fills the mouth with citrus-led flavours with a subtle note of tangerine skin and green almond. Just a lick of lime preserve lingers on the tongue to finish. Very more-ish. Under Diam cork.
