Enticing aromas of ripe mango jump out of the glass followed by an intense, elegant sip that slips down like a silver chain over a silk shirt. The small percentage of botrytis-affected grapes really transforms the often delicate Grechetto Gentile with a dry, savoury charm for this memorable Pignoletto, dedicated to the ‘giant’ statue of Neptune in central Bologna (known in dialect as zigant). It pairs perfectly with the city's best-loved dish: handmade tortellini pasta filled with the official mix of pork, prosciutto, mortadella and Parmigiano Reggiano.
