Marmorelle

2006 Salento 80% Chardonnay, 20% Malvasia Bianca

The Tenute Rubino Marmorelle is an exquisite white wine that beautifully represents the Salento region. Composed of eighty percent Chardonnay and twenty percent Malvasia Bianca, this blend exudes elegance and complexity. Its light-bodied character makes it incredibly approachable, while the high acidity delivers a refreshing crispness that invigorates the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, showcasing delightful notes of juicy stone fruits and zesty citrus, complemented by subtle floral hints. This wine is delightfully dry, enhancing its food-friendly qualities, making it an outstanding choice for pairing with a variety of dishes. The Tenute Rubino Marmorelle is a splendid example of craftsmanship, capturing the essence of its terroir in every sip.

Region:


Puglia
Puglia

The heel of Italy's "boot," sunny Puglia (the "g" is silent), is famed for its olive oils, almonds and of course, its rich, full-bodied wines. Although dry and intensely hot in the summer, Puglia has coastlines on three sides, providing cool Mediterranean breezes to alleviate the daytime heat. Primitivo (known in the US as Zinfandel) does well here, with other popular red varieties including Sangiovese and Negroamaro. But it is not all about reds in Puglia: the local Fiano grape produces gloriously nutty, tropical-flavored white, while Falanghina makes intensely fruity wines with citrus blossom notes.
