50% Favorita, 25% Moscato, 20% Arneis, & 5% Chardonnay from Piedmont, Italy.

From the importer (Kermit Lynch):

Value of the Month is quite an understatement here. This one needs a central spot in our all-time Value Hall of Fame. It’s ridiculously good, and I don’t mean “good” as in “good for the price.” I mean straight-up delicious, fun, good wine. I don’t know how Tintero does it, putting out wines that are artisanally and sustainably made on his small family azienda at prices like this. Perhaps it’s just a question of priorities. No fancy cars are parked in his driveway, if you catch my drift. This vino bianco is as unpretentious as its maker yet is far more than a simple vino. Lovely, crisp, fresh fruit aromas abound from the first pour. The wine itself is dry, low in alcohol, smooth, and flavorful, with Tintero’s signature frizzante touch of just the faintest hint of bubbles to liven it up. You really can’t go wrong with this one. My advice is to drink it chilled as can be on a hot summer day for the full experience.
