The Story Behind the Bottle
The curiously named appellation Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefiascone is an area within Lazio on the shore of Lake Bolsena. Legend has it that when travelling through Italy, 11th century wine loving bishop sent his cupbearer Martino ahead to identify inns with particularly good wine. Each door he'd mark with the word 'Est!' (short for 'vinum est bonum' - 'there's good wine here'). So impressed was Martino with Montefiascone that the bishop arrived to see doors bearing scrawls of 'Est! Est!! Est!!!' If he were around today, Martino would surely be excitedly scrawling on the cellar door of Roberto Trappolini's winery. Zesty, citrus fresh with gentle nutty pear fruit, this classic white is the ultimate partner for seafood, asparagus or salads.
