Portofino is a fishing village on the Italian Riviera coastline, southeast of Genoa city. Pastel-colored houses, border its piazza, a small cobbled square overlooking the harbor, which is lined with super-yachts.

Mediterranean-inspired White Wines

Massican produces white wines that are timeless, vibrant, and stylistically “Mediterranean.” Made in Napa Valley, California.

Not that the Massican wines are identical to each other. Each wine performs its distinctions: a tart Sauvignon Blanc; a citrusy Chardonnay; a textured Pinot Bianco and Greco blend, called Gemina; a perfumed, mineral cuvee based on Ribolla Gialla and Tocai Friulano, called Annia. Yet they all, somehow, taste like Massican. Like paintings in a series, cast from the same color palette yet individual, the pieces cohere.
