This wine shows a pale straw yellow color and nuances of greenish yellow,
very transparent. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas which
start with hints of apple, plum and hawthorn followed by aromas of almond
and pear. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp attack and
however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is
pretty persistent with flavors of apple, plum and almond. This wine ages in
steel tanks. Placido Rizzotto Bianco comes from lands confiscated to the
mafia and it is dedicated to the corleonese unionist who gave his life for
the freedom of his land from mafia's oppression.
