An excellent value made from 40% Malvasia and 60% Greco, this 1999 Gravina was fermented at cold temperatures and stored in stainless steel tanks until bottling. It offers a perfumed, Muscat-like bouquet in addition to medium-bodied, apricot-dominated, fresh, flowery, tasty flavors. A modern-styled, dry white with surprising character, particularly from this area known as the "boot" of Italy, it can be enjoyed over the next year.
