Wine Flavor Profile
Collezione di Paolo is a crisp dry white with fresh pear, apple, melon, and lemon zest aromas, lifted by pleasing floral notes. The uplifting palate offers ripe, orchard- and tropical-fruit flavors, plus a touch of creamy almond on the long, complex finish.
This rare white is a special delivery from Chianti maestro Paolo Masi, whose wines offer “irreproachably clean fruit and abundant personality,” says top Italian wine guide Gambero Rosso. Paolo’s famous for his rich reds, but what many fans don’t know is that his career began with whites. So, he’s returned to his roots with this gorgeous ‘white Chianti.’
Paolo used native grapes Trebbiano and Malvasia (with a dash of Chardonnay for added texture) that grow in Valdichiana, a little-known region in Tuscany that was a favorite of Paolo’s dad, Renzo. The results in your glass are textbook Paolo—elegant, balanced, and food-friendly.
