Tasting Notes: The Masseria Furfante Bombino Bianco is a white wine made with a native grape to Puglia called Bombino Bianco, which has been grown in this area for centuries. The name may derive from the unique shape of the bunch, which resembles that of a sleeping infant. This is a crisp, dry, and easy-drinking white, with citrus and herbaceous notes with good minerality. Delicious with most cheeses, seafood, and light meat dishes.
Estate History: Masseria Furfante is a second label produced by Rivera, a family-owned winery in northern Puglia, near the city of Andria and the remarkable Schwabian castle called Castel del Monte. While the Rivera family has only been bottling since the 1950’s, they’ve been practicing viticulture in the region since the 18th century, their estate has existed since at least the 12th.
