Maso Franch Vineyards of the Dolomites IGT 2017 - Lavis

The Maso Franch Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT is a wine that tells the story of an ancient farmstead surrounded by an unspoiled natural environment. Produced using organic agricultural techniques, this wine is a hymn to vegetative and productive balance. The color is a bright golden yellow with evident green highlights. On the nose, mineral aromas are a prelude to more fruity, citrusy scents. The evolution in the glass is continuous and intriguing, featuring flint and slightly smoky notes that complete the olfactory sensations. In the mouth, the wine has an imposing structure and great depth, broad and tight, with an evident saline component that caresses the palate. This wine is ideal for pairings with fish dishes, particularly crustaceans, or vegetable-based first courses.
