Anyone wishing to start tasting Orvieto could only start from Campo del Guardiano, a wine that has been a true paradigm of the appellation for several years. Son of the tuffaceous soils that overlook the fortress of Orvieto from the north-western valleys of Rocca Ripesena, Campo del Guardiano is the top of the excellent Palazzone range. It is in the tuff itself that, in the bottle, Campo del Guardiano rests for 18 months, before releasing, in its youth, notes of white flowers, hawthorn, crunchy fresh fruit, but above all purely mineral hints. In the mouth these sensations are fully confirmed in a vertical sip, sharp, almost nervous in youth, but destined, in the decades of longevity that Campo del Guardiano guarantees, to evolve into an ever-changing, ever more spectacular complexity and persistence.

Un grande bianco italiano
Non serve andare tassativamente in Francia per trovare un grande bianco. Orvieto un magnifica denominazione! ..fresco, minerale, frutta gialla, fiori secchi, balsamico, naso veramente complesso, in bocca sapido, intenso e dal finale molto lungo. Grande il potenziale di invecchiamento
