Verdicchio Tasting , Episode #936 (10/20/2010)
W_Verdicchio - Italy. #1; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-hint of straw, interesting little citrus component; good fruit; a little fig action as well; pretty nose; PALATE-great mouthfeel; really interesting high acid mixed with melon; good fruit - green apple meets melon; really nice finish; nice effort; this has more oomph and body than I expected; this brings the thunder for the $12 price; I really like this high acid style and a really nice flavor profile; GV-90 90 points |

Verdicchio Tasting , Episode #936 (10/20/2010)
W_Verdicchio - Italy. #2; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-more minerality and earthy; a little stinky sock; some fresh crushed rock; good fruit (pear); very vibrant; a little creaminess and almost a wood chip component which is surprising as this was aged in Stainless Steel; PALATE-pretty good; the minerality follows on the palate; grass and endive lettuce component on the mid-palate transition to the finish; like an apple salad with lettuce and walnuts; it feels like a meal to me; it's quite chewy for a white wine; these Verdicchio's are light to medium bodied wines that have such big flavor to come across very complex; the alcohol spikes a little bit; ID-89; GV-89+ |
