When I tasted Podium by Garofoli for the first time, I confirmed my theory about the longevity of this grape variety. And also the extraordinary potential of Verdicchio with its innate finesse and balance between body and freshness.

Tasting
Golden yellow with greenish reflections. Bouquet intense aroma of ripe yellow fruits accompanied by elegant scents of citrus fruit combined with a note of honey, an ensemble of great complexity and persistence. Flavour is seductive and soft, but with great character and strength, sapidity is exceptionally prolonged, warm and elegant. The fruity notes of the bouquet are reprised in the continuing evolving flavour.
Food pairing
The wine is a perfect accompaniment for imposing and elaborate seafood dishes and preparations of poultry of all types garnished with herbs.
