Costa d'Amalfi

A wonderfully evocative wine that takes me right back to Ettore Sammarco’s tiny cellar squeezed between steep cliffs and the beautiful, rugged Amalfi coast. From local varieties Biancatenera and Pepella, with 20% Falanghina, the nose blends sea salt, Amalfi lemons and wild broom (ginestra) with hints of orange blossom. A very subtle, unassuming wine until the silky texture and subtle ebb and flow of flavours and aromas has you under its spell, and you realise the bottle is empty.
