Tasting - Masseria Pertuso Avelium White Blend

 


This wine is the 2019 Masseria Pertuso Avelium from Puglia, Italy and it was $9. It is a white blend of 90% Bambino Bianco and 10% Chardonnay. 
Online tasting notes say "Avelium 2019 has appealing apples and pear drop aromas and a fresh crisp palate." Wine folly does not have a page for Bambino Bianco, but describes chardonnay as medium body and acidity, no tannins, dry, with notes of yellow apple, starfruit, pineapple, vanilla, and butter.
From my tasting, I found it had a pale yellow color and had aromas of pear, green apple, and floral notes especially honeysuckle. Upon tasting, it was smooth, dry, acidic, rounded, and full bodied.
