Soave Borgoletto, Fasoli Gino
Aromas of pears; a clean, lively palate finishing on a twist of citrus; lovely with Tagliatelli Vongole.
Natalino Gino's father went 'green' twice over. First the herbicides he'd been advised to spray on his vineyards (planted by patriarch Amadio Gino in 1925) to the west of the Veneto's Soave region made him unwell. As a result, in 1980 he set out to achieve organic certification, finally succeeding ten years later. 'Borgoletto' Soave has been a consistent Gold medallist. Aromas of fresh pears; a clean, lively palate finishing on a twist of citrus; lovely with Tagliatelli Vongole.

Light but great
This is a light wine, a really good wine to partner with expensive white fish. Turbot, brill, halibut are so easy to over power with a rich fruity or zesty wine. This is a light white but with subtle character that really grows on you. Not a white wine to acompany cheese sauces or cooked tomato dishes like ratatoille, but as a welcoming aperitif, or something to sip in the garden, or as a perfect partner for delicate fish, its spot on.
