Dalia Maris Piccolo Ode to Hermitage Bianco

When the vintage permits, Giampaolo makes “Piccolo” – a blend of the same grapes from the same locations with the fruit that I felt did not deserve to be in “B”. Here he borrows another practice from Hermitage: vinify each plot separately, evaluate the quality, and decide how blending can achieve more complexity depending on the vintage. 80% Friulano, 20% Ribolla Gialla
