Alberto Lot Filari Margherita Bianco 2022
100% Bronner, simply raised in stainless steel, ‘Filari Margherita’ is bright, dynamic, and exuberant – in a word, zesty. Loads of lemon-lime in all forms light up the palate – lemon Jolly Rancher, lime peel, gingery lemongrass, Kaffir lime leaf. White flowers, hay, and light fennel notes define the aromatics, and alluding to a subtle, herbaceous bitterness that counters all those tangy, fruity elements. ‘Zesty’ befits the acidity, too, carrying through to the brisk, bracing finish, all citrus and minerals. Giulia and Alberto decided to work with Bronner explicitly because as a PIWI variety (crosses of American and Asian wild grapevines with European grape varieties), it is resistant to fungal diseases, meaning no pesticides need to be used in the vineyards; this makes it all the more straightforward for them to fulfill their commitment to maintaining the health and history of their soil. As with all their wines, farming is by hand and holistic, cellar intervention is absolutely minimal, no sulfur is added, and production is tiny.
Shipping Policy
Due to the restrictions of many state laws, we only ship wine to those states where direct shipment from a retailer is permitted by law; currently we ship to AK, CA, DC, ID, LA, MO, NE, NV, NH, NM, ND, OR, VA, WV and WY. This list is subject to change without notice. In addition, each state imposes limitations on the amount of wine any particular resident may receive by direct shipment. To ensure that you are able to order wine for direct shipment from our website, please consult the specific state requirements for your state.
Please note that all orders must be placed by persons who are at least 21 years old, and that age verification will be required upon receipt of your wine. No wine will be delivered to obviously intoxicated persons and any person unable to provide age verification will forfeit their right to receive the shipment until identification is produced. In such circumstances, the order may either be held in storage at a local depot of the shipping company until appropriate identification is produced, or shipped back to the winery. All associated costs will be the responsibility of and be charged to the customer.
Title to, and ownership of, all wine passes from Biondivino to the purchaser in the State of California and the purchaser takes all responsibility for shipping it from California to his/her home state. By arranging for transportation of the wine, Biondivino is providing a service to, and acting on behalf of the purchaser. By utilizing this service from Biondivino, purchaser is representing that he/she is acting in compliance with his/her local and state laws regarding the purchase, transportation and delivery of wine. The purchaser represents that he/she has obtained any required permission, paid any required fees, is working through properly licensed intermediaries where required, is legally entitled to take possession of wine and is legally entitled to take quantities ordered.
You will be charged the applicable sales tax, if any, assessed by your state for any shipment that Biondivino makes; otherwise California sales tax will be assessed on the sale. Shipping and handling costs are not included in the cost and will appear in the shopping cart before you complete your transaction. The carrier and service speed may vary by state and time of year, and Biondivino cannot take responsibility for the condition of any wine shipped by Ground.
Some of our products are sold on a "pre-arrival" or "futures" basis. These products are explicitly indicated as "pre-arrivals" or "futures" on our Website and newsletter. Biondivino will notify you by email when your "pre-arrivals" or "futures" have arrived and are ready to be shipped. You will be given the opportunity to coordinate the proper shipping address and method (we won't automatically ship out pre-arrival wines when they arrive).
