Bigi 2009 White (Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefiascone)

Est! Est!! Est!!! takes its name from an ancient legend in which a bishop desired some good wine on his travels to Rome. In Montefiascone, his servant found wine so good he wrote Est (“It is”) three times to alert his master. This blend of white grapes is light, informal and very welcoming.

Bigi 2007 Vipra Bianca White (Umbria)
- Online Exclusive

Bigi 2003 Amabile White (Orvieto Classico)
- $9
High in residual sugar this is a sweet white that is almost too generous with its notes of exotic fruit and candied peach. Beyond those obvious tones is an interesting aromatic layer of vanilla and crème caramel.

Bigi 2009 Amabile White (Orvieto Classico)
- Online Exclusive
- $11
Here’s a sweet white wine (the term Amabile refers to the high sugar content) that opens with compelling notes of honey, acacia flower, peach and yellow candy. It’s hard to imagine what to pair it with: It could either go with fruit salad or salty crackers with cheese.
