Description
Critone is a Calabria Bianco produced by Librandi in the area of Strongoli, Rocca di Neto and Casabona, an expression of the meeting between international grape varieties and Mediterranean identity. Born from a blend of Chardonnay and Sauvignon grown on clay-loam and limestone soils, it represents a white wine with an international style and a distinctly Calabrian character, able to unite elegance and a sunny disposition.
The grapes are harvested between the second half of August and early September. Vinification takes place in stainless steel with gentle pressing, in order to preserve fragrance and aromatic integrity. Maturation continues in steel with a short period in bottle before release, to guarantee balance and freshness.
It shows a bright straw-yellow color. On the nose it offers elegant, intense aromas, where the fruity component of Chardonnay intertwines with the fresher, more aromatic notes of Sauvignon. On the palate it is harmonious and smooth, with pleasant freshness and good structure that supports its length.
It pairs perfectly with seafood appetizers, fish-based first courses, shellfish, white meats and fresh cheeses.
