The 2008 Orvieto Classico Superiore Luigi & Giovanna is an unusual wine in that the estate partially dries the Grechetto fruit prior to vinification. The drying process gives the wine a touch more textural richness without losing the fragrance and freshness that is such an important part of Orvieto. This is a totally classy, polished white from Barberani. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2016.
