Langhe Bianco Scapulin
Intensity and structure are the distinguishing features of this very enjoyable wine.
The mingling of the 3 different components makes the wine distinguishable in style and balance: the stainless steel supports the freshness, the amphora part underlines the mineral notes and the wooden part reinforces the body; it result in a wine of great expression and potential of evolution!
