| Commentary: |
Campo del Guardino is a deep straw-yellow color highlighted with a soft green hue. It is a wine of remarkable depth and a continuous bouquet. The palate is soothed with a silky finish that does not diminish the full vibrant fruit that lingers. Together with Valentini's Trebbiano is probably the best White of central-southern Italy
