Descrizione

The Cenere Bianco from Cuore di Marchesa presents a pleasantly straightforward profile without excess. In the glass it shows a pale straw colour; on the nose it offers fresh, restrained aromas: citrus peel like lemon, hints of white flowers and a light, unobtrusive minerality. On the palate it is lean, with a good balance of acidity and salinity, a dry, persistent finish that invites another sip. The producer favours clarity and elegance over muscularity, producing a wine suited to those seeking freshness and drinkability.

It pairs discreetly with light fish dishes, vegetable preparations, light soups and fresh cheeses; it also works well as an aperitif for informal occasions. To highlight its aromas, serve in a tulip-shaped glass at around 8–10 °C and drink young to keep the fresher notes lively. Storage and service are straightforward: avoid temperature fluctuations and prolonged oxidation.
