Notes:

Produced purely from an ancient hyper-local clone of Salamino di Santa Croce, PerFranco is named for Gianlucas grandfather Franco. Pale in hue, it pours a lightly hazy salmon in the glass, yet its overall spirit is more vinous and serious. With a blast of mouthwatering acidity, it buries its bubbles beneath a bracingly tense texture which delivers notes of lemon curd, green apples, and freshly plucked herbs with dirt still clinging to the roots. The 2020 PerFranco is elegant and persistent with a clear through-line of flavors and ample fruit.
