Wine Description:
Palazzone Campo del Guardiano is a distinguished Orvieto Classico Superiore D.O.C. crafted with meticulous care by Palazzone, situated in the picturesque hills of Umbria, Italy. This wine originates from the esteemed Campo del Guardiano vineyard, known for its sedimentary clay soils and favorable East-North East exposure at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level. The grapes undergo soft pressing, preserving the freshness and integrity of the fruit. After fermentation, the wine ages gracefully in Palazzone's cellars for 18 months in bottle, enhancing its silky texture and structured complexity. Palazzone Campo del Guardiano delivers a vibrant palate experience, characterized by persistent flavors and a harmonious balance, making it a standout expression of Orvieto's winemaking tradition and terroir.

Wine Expert Note:

Palazzone Campo del Guardiano Orvieto Classico Superiore opens with an inviting nose of ripe orchard fruits, including pear and apple, complemented by hints of citrus blossom and a touch of honeyed almonds. On the palate, it reveals a silky texture with vibrant acidity, showcasing flavors of white peach, lemon zest, and a subtle minerality that reflects its terroir. The wine culminates in a persistent finish, with a refreshing, crisp edge. Pair this elegant Orvieto Classico Superiore with seafood risotto, grilled chicken with herbs, or vegetarian pasta dishes to complement its balanced acidity and depth of flavor. For cellaring, it can be enjoyed now for its youthful vibrancy or aged for another 3-5 years to allow its flavors to further integrate and evolve.
