Natalino Gino's father went 'green' twice over. First the herbicides he'd been advised to spray on his vineyards (planted by patriarch Amadio Gino in 1925) to the west of the Veneto's Soave region made him unwell. As a result, in 1980 he set out to achieve organic certification, finally succeeding ten years later. Here, grapes harvested late and early were half fermented in barriques, resulting in a complex style: fresh flavours of honey, angelica and mandarins smoothly-integrated with oak.
