This allows the grapes more time to ripen, and this is reflected in the strength of this San Marzano wine. Incidentally, the harvest is primarily carried out by women. The idea behind this is that women are more rigorous in the selection of the grapes.

The flavor profile of this wine also includes a pronounced minerality, likely due to the clay-limestone soils where the grapes are grown. These mineral notes provide a beautiful counterpoint to the fruitier and floral components, giving the wine a lovely length and complexity. The finish is long and engaging, with a slightly bitter note typical of the orange wine style, creating a refreshing and cleansing effect on the palate. These characteristics make Lunaria Ancestrale Malvasia Orange an excellent choice for a meal or as a contemplative wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch2\u003eCulinary Delights and Final Thoughts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eLunaria Ancestrale Malvasia Orange is a wine that invites culinary experimentation.
