WINE DESCRIPTION
Fontana Candida Frascati Superiore Secco is a high-quality white wine produced by Fontana Candida, a renowned winery located in the Frascati appellation of Italy. The vineyards are situated on the hillsides of the Castelli Romani, where the volcanic soil and the Mediterranean climate create ideal growing conditions for the grapes. The wine is made from a blend of Malvasia and Trebbiano grapes, which are carefully selected and harvested by hand. The winemaking process involves a gentle pressing of the grapes, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and dry, with delicate aromas of citrus and white flowers. It is a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light pasta dishes.
