2003 Vigna dei Parma Biachetta Genovese, Golfo del Tigullio DOC. This wine comes from Liguria and is made from the native bianchetta genovese grape. The wine has a gravelly and almost salty minerality to it that upstages the lemony fruit. It's a challenging wine to handle on its own, as an aperitif. But it sings when paired with a simply prepared mild fish course. Pleasing acidity, and a surprisingly lengthy crisp, sleek finish.
