 •Winery Review: "A light, tasty wine with a dry, crisp finish that's built on a zesty citrus backbone.

Fontana Candida Frascati is the most popular Frascati in the world and has been a staple of Roman culture for almost 2,000 years.

The grapes for this dry, clean wine are grown in the porous, volcanic soils located in the Frascati commune near Rome. Rich in potassium, this soil produces plump flavorful grapes. Fontana Candida is the only Frascati producer that uses cold filtration and cold bottling to preserve the wine's flavor and clarity.

This easy-to-drink wine pairs well with salads, pasta, veal, chicken, vegetable soups, mild seafood dishes and mild cheeses. 

 •Dry smell, lemon and sour apple taste with a hint of astringence.  Good spring time wine, very easy to sip on.
 •Did not pair with food
