Miani, Malvasia La Mont Di Zuc, 2022

This is one of the rarest wines Enzo Pontoni makes, and Miani is already one of Italy's most allocation-only estates. The grape is Malvasia Istriana, a distinctly Adriatic variety, grown in the La Mont di Zuc vineyard that rises out of ponca and stone in Buttrio. The fruit is pressed slowly, then fermented and aged at least a year in French oak, giving a white with the texture and seriousness Miani is known for. Fewer than 700 cases leave the estate in a good year across all bottlings, so a single-vineyard Malvasia like this borders on unicorn territory. Grab it while you can.
