San Leonardo has a long-standing tradition linked to Riesling. As early as 1892, during the wedding of Marquis Tullo Guerrieri Gonzaga and Gemma de Gresti, this wine was served, dressed with the same label as to-day. The Riesling produced today is an interpretation that aims to capture the great minerality this grape variety can express and the classic acidity that accom- panies it, which is ultimately softened by the sweet notes of the large tonneaux where it is aged for a year
Aromas include lemon zest, crisp green apple, tropical fruits, sweet spices, honeyed nuances and a subtle smoky touch. On the palate it has a fresh, supple attack, a silky texture balanced by fine acidity, flavours of white peach and a lingering minerality.
Works well with seafood — white fish in lemon sauce, sushi and sashimi, and steamed shellfish — and also complements blue cheeses, fresh or washed-rind cheeses, and light vegetable dishes.
