Zaleuco, varietal white wine, Mantonico 100%
"The Luminous, from the name of the first legislator of the West (Locri, 663 AC)"
A colour that doesn’t go unnoticed and the slow movement in the glass betray its structure and origin. The opening with notes of citrus, exotic fruit, white flowers, and mineral hint reveal the identity of this southern white wine, a white wine with great structure and an unusual capacity for ageing over time. It’s the Mantonico!
