Cala Civetta Bianco di Pitigliano

Cala Civetta Bianco di Pitigliano is one of those quietly brilliant Italian whites that sneaks up on you with its simplicity, then wins you over with its texture and soul. From one of Tuscany’s oldest DOCs, this blend of Trebbiano and Chardonnay comes from the sun-soaked hills near the Tyrrhenian Sea, where crisp coastal breezes and volcanic soils shape every sip. It is bright, lively, and refreshingly unfussy, yet it carries surprising depth for an unoaked white. Warm citrus, green apple, and a whisper of sea salt glide over a mineral spine that feels both grounding and refreshing.

The Cantina del Morellino co-op is the heart behind this wine, a network of 170 small family growers who farm tiny parcels by hand. Their sustainable approach and deep connection to the land shine through in this bottle. Think of it as a coastal Italian afternoon captured in wine form. Pour a glass, imagine the breeze, and enjoy something beautifully simple and deeply satisfying.
