Pigato might be genetically the same as Vermentino but don't say that around
here! Although both vines look the same and share similar herbal and salty
notes, Pigato has a wonderful purity and intensity with citrus fruit, peach,
white flowers and Mediterranean herbs. The viticulture is organic and the
winemaking is all in stainless steel with regular batonnage and no malo. It's a
great partner to the local classics of trofie con pesto and spaghetti
vongole.
