That was a long time ago, but fortunately our taste buds let us travel back in time. I like this rendition of it. There may be better, but this is fine. It is a slightly acidic, thirst-quenching wine that quaffes well on its own but is good with chicken with sauce, pasta, etc. meals that need something that can cut through. It is not a great wine - does not dance on the tongue like a really marvelous wine. But it tastes very Italian and serves its purpose well.

Vernaccia di San Gimignano foi o primeiro vinho DOC declarado na Itália, em 1966. Palha-claro e verdeal, média intensidade aromática com notas florais, cítricas e minerais sobre melões, ervas frescas e leve amendoado. Leve, escorregadio, frescor crocante e altivo. Algum exotismo em sua secura, final médio e mineral. Seu hint mineral o torna bom companheiro da mesa marítima com crustáceos salteados ao azeite e alho. Esteve, entretanto, diante de uma exuberante Mini cocotte a Lulu, um tom abaixo em aromas e estrutura, não logrando a armonizzazione que esperada (2+2 = 3).

Medium weight, some gloss. Subdued underripe pineapple and some soil at the end. Just bland, neutral wine. (1333 views) | | Tasted by Alpton on 8/17/2015 & rated 85 points: Pleasant nose of elderflower and lemon. Light and crisp with grassy notes and a mineral driven finish. (1133 views) | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 8/12/2015: The first DOCG in Italy. Smells a touch like poopy diaper. Mineral, lemon funk.
