The Lunaria "La Belle" Malvasia 2021 is a bright, aromatic white from the Adriatic coast of Italy. This wine has lifted notes of orange blossom, ripe peach and subtle mineral character that make it fresh, lively and immediately approachable. Made with care by a small biodynamic producer, it shows purity of fruit and a sense of place that comes from hands-on vineyard work.

"La Belle" is perfect as an everyday white or for special meals where freshness and character matter. It pairs beautifully with seafood dishes, grilled fish, shellfish, light pasta with olive oil, or fresh goat’s cheese. Chill it slightly and serve as an aperitif to highlight its aromatic charm.

This Malvasia is a great example of why we love biodynamic wines. Low intervention in the cellar and careful vineyard management mean you get a wine that speaks clearly of its terroir and tastes vibrant in every sip.

Food Pairing

  • Seafood linguine or shellfish

  • Grilled fish such as sea bass or bream

  • Fresh goat’s cheese or mild cheeses

  • Light summer salads

Abruzzo, Italy

The Abruzzo winemaking region is in the centre of the Italian "boot". The Apennines run along its western border which include Corno Grande, the highest point on mainland Italy. The mountains temper the climate, blocking many storms that come in from the west.

Abruzzo is dominated by cooperatives. About 80% of all wine from Abruzzo is made by co-ops located in hotter areas like Chieti.
