Parresìa Bianco

Ejamu

In rhetoric, Parresìa candid speech, to cut the BS and get right to the heart of the matter and speak the truth for the common good, even if it endangers oneself. This lacks no gravitas when you consider the family story behind È Jamu, and it comes through in the glass with this stunning white blend of Manzoni and Trebbiano Rosa with a splash of Malvasia. This is a crystalline, shimmering beauty of a wine. On the nose, lemon yogurt with a hint of fresh leafy herbs, lime, and pineapple rind. The palate shimmers with a pleasing, lemon curd like redolence showing surprising concentration, well balanced acidity, and a broader texture than one would expect. An almond like note on the finish gives that classic Italian white wine indicator. This is a precious drop perfect for serious Italian wine collectors and wine lists alike.
