The Bigi Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefiascone 2015 is a charming white wine that is full of vibrant flavor and aroma. Scents of musk, hawthorn blossom, and ripe apple abound on the nose. The palate is dry and nicely balanced, with layers of graceful stone fruit flavor. The finish lingers with hints of raw almonds.
The name for this wine comes from a legend, where “est” - meaning, “it is” - should be shouted if great wine was discovered in a region. When the legendary travelers reached Montefiascone, they shouted, “Est!” three times because the wine was so delicious.
