Baudana Langhe Bianco 'Dragon' 2023

Luigi Baudana Langhe Bianco ‘Dragon’ 2023 – Piedmont, Italy
Reg $21 Soul Wine Price $17.85

This is a $21 “cult” wine here at Pike and Western. Because of the low price you might assume that production is large, but that is not the case.

From the Baudana website:

Dragon was born out of two dreams: to respect and carry on the legacy of Luigi Baudana’s vineyards and to offer a white wine that could be both easy and fun, and yet with a true complexity underneath. Dragon is a unique white blend from the Langhe. Originally produced by Luigi Baudana during the 1990s with Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, it has evolved to embrace Nascetta, an exciting heirloom variety, and a tiny amount of Riesling.
