Librandi 2006 Efeso Mantonico (Val di Neto)

Country: Italy / Efeso
Variety: Mantonico Southern Italy
Winery: Librandi / Val di Neto

Here’s a surprise hit from Calabria—a region known more for its red wines—with exotic fruit, almond paste, butter and mature melon. The wine tastes smooth and creamy thanks to a bit of oak aging and makes a perfect companion to fish or pasta.
