“Angimbé” is an interesting mix of the Sicilian native Insolia and about a third of Chardonnay, which serves to round of the acidity and add some depth to the frisky Insolia. The native grape provides notes recalling white flowers, tart citrus and salinity, with the Chardonnay bringing apple and pear notes. Very attractive throughout, it makes for a great solo glass, or a fine match for seafood.
