Iacopo Paolucci Umbria Trebbiano Spoletino Il Ponziano 2022
It is an open secret in the trade that you actually can buy wine by the label, and if you need proof, take a look at this wine. Not only does this Umbrian white come in the most spectacularly beautiful package, but the wine inside is a dream. Effulgent aromas of white blossoms, peach and pear and Cara Cara oranges with gravel and crushed Tuscan herbs tickle the nose before the palate climbs out of Plato’s cave to bask in rays of orange, peach and apricot, washing over touches of almond and minerals. This is a full bodied wine because it’s Trebbiano Spoletino, which makes Umbria’s fullest bodied white wine, and Spoleto native Iacopo Paolucci has made it his life’s work to bring Umbria’s native grapes to their greatest potential. He farms his vineyard at about 1600 feet above sea level without pesticide, and gives the wine five days of skin contact to add a little extra textural bite. Nothing else goes into the wine other than a touch of sulfur at bottling. Nothing else is needed on our end but a glass. And maybe a roast chicken. Or a mushroom risotto.
