The Spinola family has been making wine since 1367. The label adorned on the bottle is a portrait by Andy Warhol of Orsola Spinola, after whom the wine is named. This attention-worthy 100% Cortese has impeccable balance, intense minerality, and taut structure. Vibrant on the palate with notes of fresh white-fleshed stone fruit, orange zest, wet stone, and a hint of almond that wrap around the generous finish. Textbook seafood wine!
