Tasting profile

Structure: medium-bodied, medium acidity, dry

Malvasia Bianca is an aromatic Mediterranean white that California grows in small quantities, usually in a dry, perfumed style quite unlike the sweet Malvasias of Italy and Madeira. Orange blossom, apricot and honeysuckle over ripe pear and a faintly bitter almond finish that is the variety's signature. Medium-bodied with moderate acidity, dry despite an unmistakably sweet-scented nose — which is the thing that catches people out.
