Pietra 2022 Verdeca Wine – Premium 750ml Bottle

Menhir Salento Pietra Verdeca White Wine
Nestled between Lecce and Otranto in Italy’s sun-kissed Salento region lies Menhir Salento—a vineyard born from passion in 2012 by brothers Gaetano and Vito Marangelli. Surrounded by ancient Pre-Roman archaeological sites, this estate blends tradition with innovation to craft wines that reflect its rich heritage and terroir.

Our Pietra Verdeca stands out as a bright and refreshing Italian white wine with a straw-yellow hue kissed by vibrant green accents. On the nose, it unfolds into a captivating bouquet of fresh white flowers, zesty grapefruit, and tangy lemon zest—a fragrant prelude to its lively taste. The palate bursts with crisp citrus and tropical passion fruit flavors, while a lingering mineral undertone adds depth and complexity on the finish.

Perfectly suited for those seeking versatile pairings, this mineral-driven white shines alongside grilled vegetables like zucchini or eggplant—its acidity cutting through smoky char for balanced harmony. It also elevates seafood dishes such as shrimp scampi or baked cod while complementing lighter white meats like chicken or turkey.

Whether enjoyed at a summer barbecue or paired with Mediterranean-inspired meals, Menhir Salento Pietra Verdeca offers an approachable yet sophisticated taste experience rooted in Italy’s southern charm. Its bright citrus profile and clean finish make it an ideal choice for everyday enjoyment or special occasions alike—crafted not just to be tasted but savored.

Discover how this Salento gem transforms your table with every glass—a testament to artisanal winemaking where history meets modern elegance.
