Azienda Agricola Scacciadiavoli - or “Devil banisher” - was named for an exorcist who resided on the edge of town. The estate began in 1884 as a relatively new concept; a large Italian winery in an age and place where only small family farms existed. The estate entered its modern age in 1954 when Amilcare Pambuffetti returned home to purchase the farm he had worked on as a boy. Now in the hands of the fourth generation (Amilcare, Iacopo, Liù, Romeo and Fiammetta), Scacciadiavoli still makes old school, unadorned Umbrian wines in the oldest traditions of Central Italy. Montefalco may be best known for its imposing Sagrantinos, but we want to save some space for their white wine, the versatile, easy and breezy Grechetto. Lemon colored and lemon scented too, with notes of lemon meringue, apple blossom, lemon curd, key lime, and a dusting of chalky soil. The palate is juicy, full and satisfying, with tangerine, orange and lemon fruit, a bit of marzipan comes through on the finish to round out the edges of this cheerful white. Get two bottles of this for your next mushroom risotto. Use one to cook the food and the other to drink alongside.
