MIRUM

Destined to be a fabled wine of limited availability, Mirum is made only in the best vintages from 100% Verdicchio at full ripeness. The grapes are selected from a special vineyard noted for its quality of fruit. They are late harvested to maximize all the best virtues of this varietal. It is then fermented to dryness and aged for 18 months in stainless steel tanks with an additional 6 months in the bottle before ever being released. This wine is not made every year, because the weather must be just perfect to produce this great wine which is reminiscent of the great white burgundys. Mirum is one of Italy’s few white wines ever to receive a two star rating in the National Italian Wine category by Luigi Veronelli. In 1995, in the winter issue of Gambero Rosso, the Cifola’s were ranked as one of the top 92 wineries of Italy.

Mirum has an intense straw color, delicate fruity aroma of golden plums, and firm flavor of remarkable length with a gentle note of acidity. A perfect accompaniment to flavorful foods, shellfish, and light meats.
