White & Rosé Awarded

Critically acclaimed white excellence

Award-winning white wines represent the pinnacle of quality in wine production, expressions of excellence that have received the highest accolades from the most authoritative international wine guides and competitions. This exclusive collection brings together whites that have won prestigious awards such as Gambero Rosso's Tre Bicchieri, Bibenda's Cinque Grappoli, scores above 90/100 from Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Robert Parker, as well as gold medals in competitions such as the Decanter World Wine Awards and the International Wine Challenge. Each bottle tells a story of excellence, where suitable terroirs, noble grape varieties, and skilled winemaking techniques converge in wines with unmistakable personality and extraordinary evolutionary capacity.

Organoleptic profiles and distinctive characteristics

Award-winning white wines are distinguished by an organoleptic profile of superior complexity and refined elegance. In the glass, they range in color from straw yellow with greenish reflections in the fresher, younger versions to intense amber gold for whites aged in wood or with long aging. The aromatic profile is layered and deep, with notes that evolve from an initial fruity and floral freshness to tertiary complexities of spices, dried fruit, hydrocarbons, honey, and minerality. On the palate, they impress with their structure, persistence, and harmony, with a perfect balance between acidity, body, and alcohol content. The extraordinary ability to evolve over time, maintaining freshness and adding complexity, is the distinctive feature of these elite wines, capable of challenging the common perception that whites are wines for immediate consumption.

Regions and grape varieties at the forefront of excellence

The excellence of award-winning white wines encompasses a wide range of regions and grape varieties, from Italy to the rest of the world. In our country, South Tyrolean interpretations of Gewürztraminer, Riesling, and Pinot Bianco shine, alongside the great Friulian wines made from Friulano, Sauvignon, and Ribolla Gialla. The Aosta Valley surprises with its Petite Arvine, while the Marche region stands out for its award-winning Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi and Matelica. Campania produces extraordinary Fiano di Avellino, Greco di Tufo, and Falanghina, while Sicily conquers with Etna Bianco, Grillo, and Carricante.

Gourmet pairings and special occasions

Award-winning white wines deserve pairings that match their nobility and complexity. Perfect protagonists of gourmet dinners, they express themselves magnificently with haute cuisine featuring fish, noble crustaceans, prized mollusks, and dishes based on white truffles. The more structured and complex whites also pair well with elaborate white meats, game birds, and aged hard cheeses. Serving them at a slightly higher temperature (68-59°F) than ordinary whites allows their aromatic complexity to be fully appreciated. These wines are ideal choices for special occasions, comparative tastings, and celebrations, as well as being valuable collector's items for enthusiasts and investors. Their ability to evolve positively with age also makes them excellent options for prestigious gifts and for starting or enriching a high-end personal wine cellar.
