product Details

Mantonico Di Bianco 1978 Calabria​

Mantonico Di Bianco (or simply Mantonico Bianco) is a white grape variety native to the region of Calabria in the far south of Italy, which is used in the production of both dry and sweet wines.  This bottle is a rare vintage passito.

Passito wines are made by drying grapes dried on straw mats to concentrate the natural flavours and grape sugars, then pressed and fermented to result in a wine with either high residual sugar or high alcohol.
