"From aperitif to dessert, for tenfold pleasure!"
A true Gem from the De Peretti della Rocca estate, cuvée Jules blanc offers a highly seductive palette of aromas. Its pretty golden color opens with a discreet floral nose accompanied by notes of peach. The attack is lively and fresh, with aromas of candied citrus fruit, rubarb and fine bitters on the finish. Its springtime influences have charmed our taste buds!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one has the right to expect from its appellation(s))
About the domain :
In addition to a lovely hotel, this enterprising cousin of another Peretti della Rocca (an old local aristocratic family) has revived his vineyard heritage and, with the good advice of his cousin Canarelli, is precisely vinifying his flagship cuvée called Jules.

A great white and a very elegant surprise. A beautiful expression of Vermentino.
