Rated 99 points in five straight vintages, this elegant wine is our #1 selling Italian White. Edda (‘she’ in Salento dialect) is the feminine and sensual soul of San Marzano. This region also produces a number of whites with structure, complexity, and enough body to hold up to chilling them down on a warm summer day. Such is the case for the Edda Bianco, an aromatic blend of Chardonnay, Moscatello, and Fiano that is flat out amazing for the price. The Moscatello matches the Chardonnay in richness, and adds notes of citrus fruits and white flowers, while the Fiano gives minerality from the layers of calcareous soils, the hallmark of whites from Puglia. Don’t miss what Luca Maroni calls the best white in Italy!
Edda (‘she’ in Salento dialect) is the feminine and sensual soul of San Marzano. It is a complex white wine, full of Mediterranean notes. Noticeable acidity intertwined with an enveloping and elegant warmth, savoury and mineral notes on the palate. The Chardonnay grapes give the wine finesse and longevity, together with different varieties indigenous to Puglia, that year after year compete to complement the blend.
