Passerina is a lesser-known grape from central Italy. This example offers bright citrus and apple flavours with a clean, linear character. There’s a faint, appealing bitterness on the finish — a hallmark of the variety — which adds interest and food-friendly bite. The nose is subtle, but the palate shows good concentration for the price. Crisp and bone-dry, it’s an excellent match for seafood, salads, or simple grilled vegetables. A quietly impressive wine that grows on you with each sip.
